Heater Recall?

[W1NGE]

Just had a call to remind me that my car is booked in for the heater recall? I booked it when they rang me a few weeks back.

But, when I check my VIN on the recall page it says ‘none outstanding’?

The car is a dec 2023 with fully working heater? Anyone know what recall this is and if I should bother?

I know they’re prone on early cars; but I could do without the trip?

I had a failure on my MY21 4S and then repaired.

The collection of my MY23 GTS ST (from new) was delayed due to the passenger compartment heater recall. So HV heaters are a common recall / issue for J1.1 cars (all model years) so don't skip it or you may regret it come winter.

Interesting that many of you are reporting about recalls to replace the heater. My 2022 GTS ST is now having its 4th heater installed - but every time due to failure. I spent weeks every winter since new driving in freezing temperatures without any heating :-(

I had 5 heaters in two years in my previous Taycan

Just had mine replaced (2023), no issues with mine apart from one winter journey when the passenger side misted up without anyone adjusting the heating. Didn't think anything of it at the time.

Interesting observation... I've got a 23 GTS with the original heater and not had problems - though I did have some misting up during the colder mornings early this year. As you said: didn't think anything about it at the time.

My MY23 delivery was delayed due to a passenger side heater recall between leaving the factory and arriving at the dealership nefore collection. There were a batch of MY23s which had this issue and ought to have been part of a recall campaign.
