Porsche Cars North America, Inc. is recalling approximately 27,527 model year 2021-2024 Porsche Taycan vehicles because the high-voltage battery can experience a short circuit within the battery module. A short circuit in a high-voltage battery can cause the battery to overheat and significantly increases the risk of a vehicle fire. Porsche will provide a software diagnostic fix in early 2025, but in the meantime, some owners are being instructed to limit their battery charge to 80% to reduce safety risks.
A short circuit within the high-voltage battery module can lead to thermal runaway, creating a high risk of a vehicle fire that could cause injury or property damage.
You have 2 options:
