NHTSA (USA)Medium Risk

What can fail
The rearview camera image may not appear on the display when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, limiting rear visibility.
What the fix does
The 2024 Porsche Taycan has 6 recalls, the most serious being two separate battery fire risks and a front brake hose defect that can crack, leak fluid, and extend stopping distances.
The high-voltage battery can develop an internal short circuit that raises the risk of fire, and this issue covers a broad range of Taycan variants across multiple model years. On the braking side, the front brake hoses can crack and leak fluid, reducing the vehicle's ability to stop quickly. There is also a charging-related fire risk: when using a 220V/240V outlet at the 100% charge setting, some home outlets cannot handle the required current, causing the outlet or charging cable to overheat. Two lower-severity issues round out the list. The rearview camera can fail to display an image when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, leaving the driver without a rear view while backing up. Separately, some vehicles were built with incorrect headlight control module software that causes the parking lights to behave incorrectly when the turn signals are activated, reducing how visible the car is to other drivers.
