PORSCHE Taycan (Y1A / Y1B / Y1C) (2019–2023)
What the hazard is
A vehicle fire could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders, and/or damage to property.
What to do
The self-checking software is now available for immediate installation by either a workshop visit or via an Over-the-Air update. Owners can contact the Porsche Customer Relations Hub on 1800 711 911 or contact@porsche.com.au to determine their most suitable option for installation.
Defect
Due to a manufacturing issue, the cell modules installed in the high voltage battery may be defective. A short circuit could cause a thermal overload and result in a vehicle fire over time. The potential defect can be determined by Porsche using over-the-air data analysis of affected vehicles until the high-voltage battery self-checking software is installed.
