You must be new to Porsches?! This is pretty much the norm now with their vehicles. You don't become the most profitable car company in the world by building quality cars.

I can almost guarantee you will not have Lexus like reliability with a Macan. If reliability is paramount for you, then you shouldn't be looking at anything German.
