Daveo, I am preparing the submission to Demarss & Assoc that select the arbitrator. In the submission I can request any internal documents I like from Porsche to support my claim re the control unit. What documents do you think would be useful to request from Porsche re the issue? Let’s see...

Update 1 re arbitration. Just how stupid can Porsche be. my dealers response to my initial letter outlining the issues is: “ i understand what your are saying but we are being told you need to call customer commitment” They don t deny my assertions just want to pass the issue. Letter going...

Something is not making any sense: First lets try and agree on terminology as defined by Porsche: All components we are talking about are: Charge ports ( 2 on taycan ) Supply Cable Power Plug Control Unit Vehicle plug ( plug that connects to the car) Vehicle Cable( cable leading from the...

Appreciate the time you took to provide more useful information. I will keep you updated as I move along with arbitration. From my experience it will take 4 to 6 months to set a date for arbitration. I have done hundreds of arbitrations over the years. Most likely the arbitrator will have a...

It would be very helpful when I go to arbitration if you could provide me the reference source that Porsche used 10 awg wire instead of 6/8. Any help in finding reference sources that state 10 awg wire should not have been used . Other then calling you as an expert witness I. would appreciate...

It wont - you are missing the entire issue. The issue only relates to mobile chargers at home not public stations. All public stations operate under a different set of specifications and standards that EV manufacturers have agreed upon. One has nothing to do with the other. Prove me wrong...

Email Porsche ask them to confirm using non approved cables and mobile chargers not made by them will under no circumstances void the battery warranty. Let us know what the response is. Make sure you state you are not referring to energy amer etc fast charging stations. We await the response...

Forgot to mention Porsche also told me never charge the car at home to 100 percent unless taking a road trip. Maybe time to look at the Mercedes EV. Can’t wait for future updates from Porsche. E.g don T drive over 60 mph may cause battery to catch on fire. Can’t wait for the next update to come lol

Again this only applies to mobile chargers at home. Chances are this will never be an issue and one could challenge it if Porsche ever asserted it. But better to aware of it. The reality Porsche used to part of VW and we all know how VW lied and cheated on emissions etc. so I don’t trust...

Lol talk about trying to shoot the messenger . I sent and email to Porsche outlining the issues and I just received a phone call from the service manager. 1. Porsche did reduce the amps on the charger from 40 to 20 amps due to the fact there is a risk the socket will melt if using 40 amps 2...

Before you yell BS read the manuals. All that I have stated is clearly spelled out in writing . They even have a french version. Clearly everything I am stating applies to the mobil charger not the fast chargers thru out the usa and Europe. Pg 3 of mobil charging manual "only use e.g. supply...

relax Derek, someone else is going to fight the battle. for owners. Thats why some of us retire to have the time to carry on the fight lol

Guys it is important everyone understand the Porsche warranty and Porsche mobil Charger Connect technical specs before buying a new charger or filing a claim. I have taken the time to read and here is what you all need to know: 1. If you go out and buy a different mobil charger that is not...

Good points, however the difference here is we are dealing with doubling the time to charge our cars at home so this will be an on going issue. I understand how some may feel starting a “fight” is not worth their time. However, others feel that Porsche should remedy the issue. Therefore I...

Tom you are so correct. I am going to research the matter further and look at what Porsches statements were when they released the mobil charger, what assertions they made, what the warranty says and procedures to file arbitration. I did this before with defective leather in a BMW and won...

Not all class action lawsuits result in $5 remedies so get your facts correct. What Tom was advocating was getting Porsche to fix the defective charger. E.G the LG class action took 2 yrs, never went to court resulted in owners getting 10 warranty extend up to $3200 for loss food. However, there...

I agree with you! My dealer did the update 2 weeks ago and never told me the time to charge my car would be twice as long. I received a letter from Porsche today stating the 50% reduction. I also never received an update to the manual per the letter. I emailed my service advisor and he said I...

The dealer did the charger update and never explained what the downgrade to the charger was. Received a letter today explaining the 50% reduction in charging capability. I to had a 50 amp circuit installed. It is now taking me twice as long to charge my car. I agree Porsche needs to replace...
