I went in to my dealer for the power interruption sofware fix , starts with “AB”, about 2 weeks ago. Shortly afterwards, car still showed recalls. I just now checked the NHTSA app, Safer Car, and my car now shows no recalls.
Plug your VIN. In here:
https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2021/PORSCHE/TAYCAN%2525204S/4%252520DR/AWD
you will see whether NHTSA lists your specific vehicle as subject to recall. My 4S, as of the present, has no listed “unrepaired recalls.” There is an app, SaferCar, that will also notify you of...
Take a look at this; it may help:

This issue sporadically arises at least since fall of last year. I have been told by Porsche support, numerous times, that there is a...
That makes a great deal of sense. Which is why I am mystified that the logon button on the car PCM, where I am supposed to enter data, remains greyed out after entering the exact same ID and PW. And trying it several times, including after having done a system reset to factory settings. It is...
And for good measure, I have been unable find a spot on the porsche connect app where you can change your password! This is standard on apps in my decades of experience using apps requiring IDs and passwords. Aside from this lapse by Porsche software engineers, I believe the root of the problem...
I am at a complete loss as to how to repair this error. porsche support has been most courteous, but feckless. It’s not going to go on much longer, one hopes. I am now entering my second week of ”guest” driving.
The link you referred me to is exactly the issue I am having and the experience I am having with Porsche support. Very supportive on the phone, including asking for a photo of the login page with my ID and PW, then disappears into the void. I also have the blinking red light and a continuous...
I thought I would post this, as on the latest call to Porsche we were advised that this is a known issue being experienced by several others and that a “campaign” is underway. I am uncertain what the latter term means, but my dealer says it is a good thing.
Here’s the problem: when you first...

As of the date I posted this for my MY21 4S, no recall. My dealer has just installed a software fix issued days ago under a Do Not Deliver without order from Porsche...
Owners manual says not to use Self Park in areas with pillars. I share your pain. The 360 view as you park (not requiring Self Park to be on) is a big help, specially as this car is wide. Go nice and easy. :)
There’s a lot of discussion on this. For detail, just search the threads. As I understand it, before a software update, it used to be that while charging a car, the 12 V battery was being drained. The car will not run without the 12v being operable, so the 12V batteries were dying, bringing the...
My 4S is a Chalk. I would say the color is creamy taup. That’s the closest I can come to a description. There is a dramatic difference in bright sunlight. Under florescent lights it looks closer to a white. With sunglasses on while driving, it takes on still another hue. I’ve heard many new 911s...
A quick review of the owners’ manual published on this forum show no particular cautions regarding the underbody cleaning. I take some comfort from that. But such is not the case for assistance sensors. They are to be cleaned “using only clean water and a little wash-up liquid or window...
I noticed that the car wash on Lincoln Way advertises an “underbody spray.” This feature might be common throughout US car washes. (i lvr on east coast). What about the effect on the battery down there? This might be different from ordinary road spray if it’s a jet blast of water. It might be...
I agree with commenters who see a higher number of complaints, clustered recently. I was only looking at MY2021 (9 complaints). I haven’t looked at every complaint listed, but a given complaint dealing with the power issue is repeatedly listed for all models. You can tell the complaint is the...
