Porsche Taycan Recalled Globally Every Unit Sold Affected
Porsche has recalled all Taycan units manufactured and sold worldwide since 2020 due to a potential issue with the front brake hose. The recall affects only 1% of the cars, and Porsche will contact owners directly for a two-hour fix.
Porsche Taycan Recalled Globally: Every Unit Sold Affected
Overview:
Porsche has announced a global recall for every Taycan unit produced and sold since 2020. The recall is due to a potential issue with the front brake hose, which can develop cracks and lead to a brake fluid leak, ultimately affecting braking performance.
Details of the Recall:
The issue centers on the front brake hose, which may develop cracks over time. This defect can cause brake fluid to leak, reducing brake pressure and potentially impairing the Taycan's braking capability. While only 1% of the Taycans sold are affected by this issue, Porsche has decided to recall all units as a precautionary measure.
Owner Notification and Repair Process:
Porsche will reach out to Taycan owners directly to arrange for the replacement of the affected parts. The repair process is estimated to take about two hours. Owners are advised to monitor the dashboard for a warning light indicating a problem. If the warning light appears, they should drive the car to a dealership immediately. If a red light appears, the car should not be driven at all. If no warning light is present, the car is deemed safe to drive.
Safety Measures:
Porsche assures that the cars are safe to drive unless the warning light is illuminated. The recall aims to proactively address the potential issue and ensure the continued safety and performance of the Taycan.
