Yes, this is for North America. It doesn't list my VIN / VIN range but I've been informed I need the update. Therefore this is not an exhaustive list.

SImply wait until you are informed either by letter or via the My Porsche App to know if you require the update or not.
Same for me. My VIN is not listed but I got notification on MyPorsche website. I have a May 2020 delivered Turbo.

Got the notification. Called the dealer and they say they will not be ready for AMB5 until mid-late August due to "parts" needed for the update? Going to try another dealer.

My VIN number is in the VIN range listed in this document so it is not only North America.
Interesting because mine is not in the range. I had assumed the range only covered cars sold in the US? I can not find any where to check my VIN on the French Porsche website?

Only a couple of hours ago, the power electronics recall popped up for my VIN number (September-produced 2020 4S) on the Porsche recall look-up page:
https://recall.porsche.com/prod/pag/vinrecalllookup_V3.nsf/VIN?ReadForm&c=usa
It is shows up even on the NHTSA site. It shows my car needs the recall even though it received e latest PE software in June. I guess they just go by VIN range, not the actual software version and they have not marked as completed the ones that received the update.

Voila - https://recall.porsche.com/prod/pag/vinrecalllookup.nsf/VIN?ReadForm&c=gb - not French but it redirects to US (!) and found my UK recall. Who knows, it might work for you.
Thank You!

That is the same website I looked at, but my VIN seems not to be recognised? I went to myPorsche and copied the VIN so that I did not do any incorrect entry. This is the info I received:

“”The vehicle identification number you entered is WP0ZZZY1ZLSA65xxx. We could not find campaign information about this vehicle because the number you entered contains an error or is not in our system.

Please verify that the number you entered is correct, or contact your authorized Porsche dealer for assistance.””

ach well!!! My Porsche centre has not even heard about any of the problems at all. So I guess all is fine here so far.
