FRANKFURT, Dec 4 (Reuters) - Porsche (PSHG_p.DE) is recalling 128 of its 911 GT3 and 911 GT3 RS sports cars to repair switches that control traction and adjust suspensions, the company said on Tuesday.

It said the problem could lead to the two functions' failure, although it was unaware of any cases in which this had happened.

The recall covers models made between Sept. 28 and Nov. 9 of this year, it said in a statement.

The GT3 sells for around 112,500 euros ($165,900) including tax in Germany, while the RS version costs around 135,000 euros. (Reporting by Michael Shields; Editing by David Cowell)
