Cars are cars with thousands of parts regardless of the make. I'll add an encore to my AMG GTR break down story. The second time I drove my .2 GT3 RS I got a transmission fault code. Gaudin Porsche in Vegas had the car for two weeks and replaced the valve body. The very next day I drove it I got the exact same CEL and it got sent back to the dealer again. This time they replaced the entire PDK transmission. They had the car in total for a month between both times. I will say Porsche was cool and picked up the tab for $600 in extras I had added while it was there and gave me an additional two years of factory warranty for a total of six years. I was happy with that and never had an issue again. That's not the driver in the pic - lol. That was his kid riding with him for the day.
I may need to filter out who is whom here but in any case a new vehicle with an engine light on is certainly something that is out of the norm regardless how often it happens and which brand.
Porsche Cayenne e-hybrid has entered the chat...
A thread I was actively following when I was debating between GLE53 and the Cayenne eHbyrid. The CEL wasn't the reason I decided with GLE53. I wanted an occasional 7-seater option.

You have a very nice Stable of cars…and an equal amount of patience. I’ll have to admit that your Aria story made me laugh, although it wasn’t funny that it happened. It couldn’t have happened in a worse place!
