Porsche Cars North America, Inc: Incorrect Headlight Software/FMVSS 108

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. is recalling approximately 954 model year 2024 Taycan vehicles because they may have been equipped with incorrect headlight control module software. This defect can cause the parking lights to malfunction when the turn signals are used, which reduces the vehicle's visibility to other drivers and increases the risk of a crash. To fix this issue, Porsche dealers will perform a free software update on the headlight control module.

Risk

The incorrect software may prevent the parking lights from working properly when you activate your turn signals. This makes your vehicle less visible to other drivers, particularly in low-light conditions, significantly increasing the likelihood of a collision.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if your vehicle is affected: This recall specifically impacts certain 2024 Porsche Taycan vehicles.
  2. Contact an authorized Porsche dealer to schedule a free appointment to have your vehicle's headlight control module software updated.
  3. If you have further questions, contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243 and reference recall number ARB4.
  4. For additional information, you may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov.
