At least you could coast. Both times mine jerked rather violently to a stop. They had my car 5 weeks the first time and found nothing. I figured it was a fluke (what choice did I have?!). It wasn't a fluke. 80 miles and two days later, it happened again. This time they said it threw a code...

Thank you.

Enlighten me. Although I think I know.

It happened again to me, 80 miles after I got it back from being in the shop 5 weeks, with Porsche finding nothing. I only decided to take the risk, because it had only happened once in over 3 years, and well, what the heck was I supposed to do? I am going to file a supplement to my previous...

It gets worse.

I filed with NHTSA

Thank you for the info.

I hear you. I'll file. Is there a European version or versions of the NHTSA? If it's happened at least three times in the U. S. , I suspect it's happened elsewhere.

Not good. Mine has been in for three weeks with same issue. They can't find anything wrong with it. All they say is I've "got Porsche's attention."

This makes at least 3 we know of. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/would-you-own-and-drive-a-car-that-randomly-slams-on-the-brakes-and-then-removes-all-drive-power-you-do.21259/

dnigrin, What is your level of confidence that it's absolutely fixed, and will never happen again?

Any update from Porsche? My update: They found nothing after downloading data from car, which of course is a bad sign, as it probably means it's just random. They said they are going to do a factory prescribed extensive road test, after completing the brake line recall. If they find nothing...

It seems to be.

Thank you!

It's in the steering column, where the column goes through the floor board. I can press my left foot hard against the left side of the column and silence it. I found it after the dealer tried everything, and had the car over a month. Even had a regional rep try to figure it out. It's such a long...

That does sound almost identical! Keep us posted.

So the manufacturer who just sold you the car, advises you not to drive it in the rain. In the UK. What kind of a discount did you get? The same percentage as the percent of time it rains in the UK? If course, that's still driving it more than mine. They told me not to drive it at all. That...

Thanks for the additional link. Again, mine is different. It seemed like a collision avoidance stop, but, and it's a big but, it didn't give the collision avoidance warning, it gave an Engine Control warning, and disabled the drive power. I had to turn the car off to reset. No assurance that...

Thanks for the links. Slamming on the brakes is the big issue. I can't tell if that was happening on those. It doesn't seem like it, just loses power. It's literally impossible to feel safe driving it (I know my wife is not getting in it again), knowing about the brakes. Obviously, I'll keep the...

I hate starting this thread, because I have had my '21 4S for over three years, and I love it. And I hate it. I am one of those that has had my car into the shop more times than I can remember, most small, but still annoying and time consuming. One rattle issue never has been solved. My wife's...
