https://carrecalltracker.com/porsche/NHTSA vehicle safety recalls explained in plain English. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v896000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v896000/Fri, 19 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000When you shift into reverse, the backup camera picture may not appear on the screen. That leaves you backing up using only your mirrors and your own look over your shoulder, which makes it easier to miss a child, a pet or an object behind you. Federal rules require that image to show. Porsche dealers will load updated driver assistance software at no charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on February 13, 2026. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v634000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v634000/Tue, 23 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000The bolts holding the high-pressure fuel pump in place may not have been tightened enough at the factory. If they are loose, gasoline can leak out inside the engine compartment. Fuel leaking near something hot or a spark can catch fire. A dealer will check the connections and tighten them, and will replace the fuel pump and fuel lines if those parts need it. All of this is done at no cost. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v415000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v415000/Tue, 15 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000A retaining ring at the top of the front suspension strut can work loose on some 2025 Porsche Panamera, Panamera E-Hybrid and Taycan models. If it does, the strut can pull out of place and the air suspension can lose its air on that corner of the car. That can make the car hard to steer and control. Dealers will inspect the ring and put it back on properly if needed. Owner letters were mailed August 15, 2025. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v221000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/25v221000/Mon, 05 May 2025 00:00:00 +0000The front passenger seat has a system that senses who is sitting there and decides whether the passenger airbag should be switched on. On these cars that system can make an error and turn the front passenger airbag off. If that happens, the airbag will not inflate in a crash, so a person riding in the front passenger seat has less protection. Dealers will replace the front passenger seat cushion at no cost. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v732000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v732000/Tue, 01 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000The large battery that powers your Taycan can short-circuit inside one of its sections, and a short in a battery this big can start a fire. Porsche is watching data that cars send in online and will contact owners whose battery looks suspect, telling them to charge only to 80 percent until it is replaced. Dealers install new monitoring software as the permanent fix. If your car does not send data, the dealer will test it and replace the battery section if needed. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v731000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v731000/Tue, 01 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000A part inside the large battery that powers certain 2020-2023 Taycan models can short circuit. A short circuit can start a fire. Until the repair is done, Porsche says to charge the car no higher than 80 percent. A dealer will replace the affected battery modules at no cost. This recall covers more cars than three earlier ones, so even a Taycan already fixed before needs this new repair. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v654000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v654000/Thu, 05 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000The wrong software was loaded into the module that controls the headlights. Because of it, the parking lights may not work the way they should when you switch on a turn signal, so other drivers may have a harder time seeing your car. That does not meet the federal rule for lights on vehicles. A dealer can fix it by loading the correct software into the headlight control unit; no parts are needed, and the update is free. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v533000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v533000/Tue, 16 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0000A metal suspension part that holds the driver's side front wheel in place — the upper control arm — may have been installed with cracks in it. If that part breaks while you are driving, the wheel can move out of position and you can suddenly lose the ability to steer the car. Porsche says owners should not drive these vehicles. A dealer will replace the cracked part with a new one at no cost to you. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v455000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v455000/Wed, 19 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0000The brake hoses at the front wheels on these Taycans can develop cracks and let brake fluid leak out. Brake fluid is what carries the force from your foot to the brakes at the wheels, so losing it weakens how well the car stops. The car may need a longer distance to come to a halt than you expect, especially in a sudden stop. Dealers replace the front brake hoses at no charge. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v215000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v215000/Wed, 20 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000The large high-voltage battery that powers these electric Taycans can short circuit inside one of its modules. A short circuit can start a fire. Until the repair is finished, Porsche tells owners to charge the car no higher than 80 percent of its capacity. Dealers replace the affected battery modules at no cost to you. Owner notification letters were mailed in October 2024, so many owners have already been contacted about this repair. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v217000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v217000/Wed, 20 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000The large battery that powers your electric Porsche is built from modules, and one of those modules can short out inside. A short circuit in a battery like this can start a fire. Until the car is repaired, Porsche is telling owners to charge only up to 80 percent of full. At the dealer, technicians will read the battery's data and replace any modules that turn out to be bad. The check and any replacement parts cost you nothing. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v123000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/24v123000/Tue, 20 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0000The rear seat belts have a locking mode you use to hold a child seat tightly in place. On these cars that lock can release too early, so the belt goes slack and the child seat is no longer held firmly against the seat. In a crash, a child seat that can shift around will not protect the child the way it is meant to. The dealer will inspect the rear three-point belts and replace them if needed, at no charge to you. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v841000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v841000/Wed, 13 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0000Some of these electric and plug-in hybrid Porsches came with a portable 220/240-volt charging cable. If you plug it into a home outlet that cannot handle that much electricity and charge to 100%, the outlet or the cable can get very hot. That heat can start a fire. Porsche says to stop using that cable for now and charge with the 110-volt home cable or a public charging station instead. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v840000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v840000/Wed, 13 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0000Porsche is recalling certain 2021-2023 Taycan models, including the 4S, Turbo, Turbo S, GTS and Cross Turismo versions. The large battery pack that powers these electric cars can develop a short circuit inside one of its modules, an electrical fault where current takes the wrong path. That can create enough heat to start a fire. Your dealer will check the battery and replace any bad modules at no cost to you. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v715000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v715000/Wed, 25 Oct 2023 00:00:00 +0000Cars ordered with the optional full bucket seats have an airbag built into the seat itself. On these cars, that seat airbag can go off during a crash when it was not supposed to. An airbag that fires when it should not can strike the person in the seat and cause injury on its own. The fix is a software change: the dealer reprograms the airbag control computer at no cost. Owner letters were mailed December 11, 2023. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v615000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v615000/Fri, 01 Sep 2023 00:00:00 +0000Some 2023 Porsche Taycans were built without enough sealant around the large high-voltage battery pack. Without a proper seal, liquid can work its way in and collect inside the battery. Liquid where it does not belong can let electricity jump across where it should not, and that can start a fire. There is no reliable way for you to spot this from outside the car. A dealer will test the battery for leakage and replace it if needed. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v527000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v527000/Thu, 27 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0000On certain 2024 Cayenne models, the hazard flashers and parking lights may fail to light up after you shut the car off. It happens only if you switch them on within about ten seconds of the car's main control unit powering down. That does not meet the federal rule for vehicle lighting, and a parked or stopped Cayenne could be harder for other drivers to see. Dealers update the control unit software free of charge. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v446000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v446000/Mon, 26 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +0000These cars have two center brake lights: one on the body and one on the rear spoiler. Only one should be lit at a time. A software error in the spoiler's control unit can switch both on at once when you raise the spoiler by hand at speeds under 56 mph. Two center brake lights glowing together can confuse drivers behind you about what your car is doing, which could lead to a crash. The federal lighting standard is not met. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v443000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v443000/Mon, 26 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +0000The seat belts for the outer back seats are bolted to the seat frame at the bottom. On these cars, that screw may not have been tightened enough when the car was built. In a crash, a loose anchor can pull free, so the belt would not hold the person in the seat the way it should. Dealers will replace and properly tighten the lower screws on both rear outboard seat belts. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v347000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v347000/Tue, 16 May 2023 00:00:00 +0000When the brake pads on these Taycans wear down, the car does put a warning on the instrument cluster, but it uses the wrong symbol in the wrong color. A driver can easily misread it and keep driving on worn-out pads, and worn pads mean the car does not stop as well as it should. Porsche dealers will update the instrument cluster software so the brake pad warning shows up correctly and is easy to understand. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v313000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v313000/Wed, 03 May 2023 00:00:00 +0000A mistake on the body assembly line means some of the welds that hold the car's structure together may have been left out. You cannot see or feel this, and the car drives normally. It matters in a crash: a body that was not fully welded may not hold up the way it was designed to, so people inside could be hurt worse than they otherwise would be. Dealers inspect the body and add any missing welds, free of charge. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v176000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v176000/Fri, 17 Mar 2023 00:00:00 +0000When someone sits in a seat without buckling up, the car is supposed to show a warning light and sound a chime. On these cars that reminder does not come on for an unbelted passenger the way it should, which does not meet the federal safety rule for occupant protection. That means a passenger may not be reminded to buckle, and an unbelted person is far more likely to be hurt in a crash. Dealers update the instrument cluster software for free. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v033000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/23v033000/Fri, 27 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0000Moisture can get inside the pump that circulates coolant for the climate control system. Water and electricity do not mix: the moisture can cause an electrical short, and a short in that area can start a fire in the car. Porsche sent an early warning letter before the repair was ready. Dealers will replace the pump, and check the plug connection and replace it too if needed, free of charge. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v921000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v921000/Tue, 13 Dec 2022 00:00:00 +0000A ring that holds the top of a front suspension strut in place can work loose. If it does, the strut can come out of position and lose the air that supports the car's weight on that corner. That side of the car can drop, and the car can become hard to steer and control. Your Porsche dealer will look at the strut and put in a new one if it is needed, at no cost to you. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v803000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v803000/Tue, 25 Oct 2022 00:00:00 +0000On some 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 cars, the screw that holds the bottom end of a front seat belt to the seat frame may not have been tightened enough at the factory. If that screw is loose, the belt anchor can pull away from the seat during a crash, so the belt would not hold you in place the way it is supposed to. The car otherwise drives normally, and there is no warning light for this. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v656000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v656000/Tue, 30 Aug 2022 00:00:00 +0000The little caps that cover the aiming screws for the low-beam headlights are missing on these cars. Without them, the headlights can get knocked out of aim. Poorly aimed headlights may light up the wrong part of the road, so you see less at night, or they may shine into the eyes of drivers coming the other way. A dealer will look at both headlights and put in any caps that are missing. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v404000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v404000/Wed, 08 Jun 2022 00:00:00 +0000A software problem can leave the big center screen and the touch panel below it completely black right after you start the car. Because the backup camera picture shows on that screen, you may see nothing behind you when you shift into reverse. The screen can also show a flickering image from the surround-view camera. Porsche says this means the vehicles do not meet the federal rear-visibility rule. Dealers fix it with new software. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v278000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v278000/Tue, 26 Apr 2022 00:00:00 +0000Moving the driver or front passenger seat forward and back can damage the wiring bundle attached to the seat on these Porsche Taycans. That wiring is part of the airbag system. If it is damaged, airbags may be switched off without you knowing, so they might not inflate in a crash. A dealer inspects the wiring, wraps it with fabric tape so it stops rubbing, and repairs any wires that are already damaged. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v100000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v100000/Tue, 22 Feb 2022 00:00:00 +0000Certain 2020-2021 Porsche Taycan cars that were ordered with the optional rear center seat have a wiring bundle for the center seat belt buckle that sits in the way. It can block access to the lower child seat anchor points for the right rear seat, so a child seat cannot be attached properly. Because of this, the car does not meet the federal safety rule for child seat anchors. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v052000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v052000/Wed, 02 Feb 2022 00:00:00 +0000One 2021 Taycan left the factory with its front and rear suspension out of alignment. When the wheels don't point exactly where they should, the tires scrub against the road and wear out faster than normal, often unevenly across the tread. Porsche dealers will check both axles, reset the alignment if it is off, and replace any tire that has already worn prematurely or unevenly. All of the inspection and parts work is free. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v040000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/22v040000/Fri, 28 Jan 2022 00:00:00 +0000Your Cayenne had work done under an earlier recall. After that repair, the shop was supposed to check that the rear wheels were pointed correctly — the alignment. On some cars, that check was skipped. Rear wheels that are even slightly off can scrub the tires, wearing them out early or in uneven patches. Worn tires grip the road less well. The dealer will measure the rear alignment, adjust it if needed, and replace any tires already damaged. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v911000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v911000/Fri, 19 Nov 2021 00:00:00 +0000On some 2020 Taycans, the bolted connections holding the upper control arms at the rear axle may be loose. Control arms are the parts that hold each rear wheel in the right position. If a loose connection comes apart, the car can suddenly become unstable and hard to control. The notice does not say the bolts can simply be retightened; dealers will replace the screw connections at the rear axle at no charge to you. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v794000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v794000/Wed, 13 Oct 2021 00:00:00 +0000These cars can turn on the hazard flashers automatically when the vehicle senses a possible collision ahead. On these vehicles, the flashers may switch on in ordinary driving situations when there is no emergency. Because federal rules cover how warning lamps behave, these cars do not meet that standard. Drivers around you may not understand why your flashers are on and may react in an unexpected way. Dealers fix this with a free software update. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v697000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v697000/Wed, 08 Sep 2021 00:00:00 +0000A rod inside the brake booster — the part that links your brake pedal to the rest of the braking system — may be loose and could come apart. If that happens, the brake pedal fails, so pressing it will not slow or stop the car. This affects certain 2020-2021 911 Carrera and Taycan models. Dealers will inspect the brake booster and repair or replace it, free of charge. Owner letters went out in late October 2021. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v608000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v608000/Wed, 04 Aug 2021 00:00:00 +0000Your seat belts have a locking feature that clamps the belt tight so a child seat stays firmly in place. On these cars, that lock can switch off too early, letting the belt loosen so the child seat is no longer held securely. Because of this, the vehicle does not meet the federal safety rule covering how people are protected in a crash. A dealer will inspect the seat belts and replace any that are faulty, free of charge. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v493000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v493000/Wed, 30 Jun 2021 00:00:00 +0000The bolt that holds the steering column to the steering gear may come loose or break. If it fails, the steering column can come apart and you could lose the ability to steer the car. This affects certain 2021 Cayenne models. The fix itself is quick: a dealer installs a new screw at no cost to you. Porsche mailed letters to owners on August 24, 2021, and the repair is free. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v486000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v486000/Tue, 29 Jun 2021 00:00:00 +0000The software that watches over the Taycan's electric drive system can mistakenly think something has gone wrong. When that happens, it shuts the drive system down and the car loses power while you are driving. Nothing is actually broken — the software is reading a fault that is not there — but you can still be left without power on the road, which can lead to a crash. A dealer will reprogram the power electronics and the control unit to correct it. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v362000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v362000/Mon, 17 May 2021 00:00:00 +0000Each front wheel is held in place by suspension arms. On these cars one of those arms, the lower trailing arm, was not made correctly at the factory and can break. If an arm breaks while you are driving, that wheel is no longer held properly and you can lose control of the car. Dealers replace the front lower trailing arms at no charge to you. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v341000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v341000/Wed, 12 May 2021 00:00:00 +0000Cracks can form on the inside surface of an engine cylinder, the polished bore a piston slides up and down in. Those cracks can damage the engine. Two things can follow: the engine can quit running while you are driving, or oil can leak out. Leaking oil onto a hot engine can start a fire, and a stall in traffic can cause a crash. The fix is not a small one - dealers replace the whole engine at no cost. https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v318000/https://carrecalltracker.com/recall/21v318000/Wed, 05 May 2021 00:00:00 +0000The front passenger seat in these Cayennes was built without a heating element in the seat back. That missing part can throw off the system that senses whether someone is sitting in the passenger seat and how big they are. Because the car may misjudge the passenger, the front passenger airbag may not go off in a crash. The seat otherwise looks and works normally, so there is no sign anything is missing.
