Porsche recalling 1,700 911's

- Porsche is recalling about 1,700 of its 911s from 2010-11 because wheel hubs may wear prematurely, resulting in a compromised wheel-retention system that could lead to a crash, the automaker told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Porsche said the 911 Turbo, 911 Turbo S, the 911 GT3 and GT3 RS, and the GT2 RS equipped with the center locking wheel and hub assembly were affected. Dan Engelman, a spokesman for Porsche Cars North America, said he was unaware of any accidents relating to the condition.
