Porsche is way behind other manufactures re EV car technology.. In 2026 BMW will have a new EV platform for the IXS which will have a range of 500 miles an state of the art software.
I received this response from PCNA re the battery cell recall: Another words I should have expected the car to have numerous recalls and problems since it is an EV and If I bought a gasoline car I would not have had the same issues. their response says it all “Part of the ongoing...
Today PCNA sent out an email re remote monitoring thru the Porsche Connect Application. However, many of us found the Porsche Connect app to be a worthless expense . Now PCNA is requiring the customer to pay to monitor the safety defect in the batteries that they created. PCNA should offer the...
I guess Porsche didn’t learn their lesson the first time I took them to arbitration over the charging cable- I won. Now I am going to file again over the battery cell recall. My Taycan has been at the dealership for over 30 days while Porsche , and its dysfunctional approach to fixing...
Per my previous post and per Porsche NA and dealer all defective battery modules have to be sent out for repair with the process taking 6-8 weeks. There are no replacement cells at dealers. Dealers are very frustrated with the entire process and are limited to the number of cells they can send...
Received an email today from Porsche titled Important Safety Recall. -Free Taycan Battery Module now available for Replacement.
Again Porsche fails to communicate to Dealers - Dealer informed me they have not been informed by Porsche of this latest recall.and have no battery cell replacements ...
Looks
Loo,ks like the battery cover maybe affected. If so expensive to replace and more importantly water can get into the batteries. Porsche did have to fix a number of battery covers by installing a new adhesive to keep water out. However, if there is that much damage they may deny the...
I did not arbitrate for $600. I took the position that Porsche charged me $1800 for a charger that was defective and mis represented the capabilities of the car. I cannot disclose the outcome due NDA but i was very satisfied with the outcome.
If you were shopping for a hi end EV and read that Taycan has had 7 recalls, battery may catch on fire and btw don’t charge over 80% would you spend $150K on a taycan? Plus every time the car goes in for repair expect to the dealer to keep it over 3 weeks. I for one intend my next car to be...
Typically class action lawsuits take years to resolve and the only winners are the attorneys. A more effective approach is to file an arbitration claim against Porsche. I did this regarding the cable for the battery charger .. If Porsche is hit with hundreds for arbitration claims regarding...
I am really confused . Porsche had my car for almost a month re ARB 5 and after running diagnostic tests on my 2020 Taycan said they detected no fault with the battery therefore were not going to ship out the module to the 3rd party for replacement, Now they want me to take the car back in for...
I took my car in on 9/4/24 for 5 recall notices. Dealer informed me today Porsche placed a hold on the battery cell recall due to over demand . Only fixing "critical" battery issues. Dealer only allowed to send in 3 batteries per month! Also told me they don;t have all the parts for brake...
Although Porsche sent me letters re the battery module recall, the brake hose recall and the charging cable recall - each letter stated there was no fix at this time . I called my dealer and he told me bring the car in they do have the parts. Now my car will be in the ship for 2 weeks as they...
On my taycan I never had a 2 yr Service light and I did inform the dealer I would do it myself. No stamp needed since this does not affect the warranty on the car
You can set the direction of the airflow by doing the following
1. Make sure sync (center control panel)on so you see controls for both driver and passenger side
2. Go to a/c settings and you can adjust air flow for driver and passenger side. by moving the airflow symbols with your finger to the...
Been over 4 weeks and still no payment. Now Porsche saying payments delayed for over 6 weeks. Considering the last time I had my TAYCAN at the dealer to fix leaking battery compartment and defective heater , all which took 6 weeks, you have to wonder just how inefficient Porsche NA is that it...
The dealer wanted $1250 to replace the cabin filter ( retail cost $150) and check my brake fluid level and check the battery cells ( 8 year warranty so this is a joke to pay to check). After doing a little research I changed the filter myself took less than 15 mins. The only good you tube...
