In these vehicles, the rearview camera image may not show up on the display screen when the vehicle is shifted into reverse. Dealers will fix this by updating the driver assistance software, free of charge.
Porsche is recalling a number of electric and plug-in hybrid models, including the Taycan, Cayenne E-Hybrid and Panamera 4S E-Hybrid. When the compact charging system is used with its industrial 220-volt or 240-volt plug at the 100 percent charge setting, some home outlets cannot handle the electrical current the system needs. The outlet or the charging cable can then overheat. Dealers will supply a new 220-volt/240-volt portable charging cable with a built-in temperature sensor, free of charge.
On certain Porsche Cayenne, Cayenne Coupe, Cayenne S Coupe, Cayenne GTS, Cayenne GTS Coupe, and Cayenne E-Hybrid Coupe vehicles, a heating element that should have been installed in the front passenger seat back was left out. This part affects the system that senses whether a passenger is sitting in the seat, which can throw off its readings. Because of this, the front passenger airbag may fail to deploy.
Recalls and NHTSA owner complaints for each model year, side by side. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and better-selling or older years naturally collect more — read this as a record, not a ranking.

No. None of the 3 Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid recalls on file carries a do-not-drive or park-outside advisory from NHTSA.
