Computed from 79 owner complaints filed with NHTSA for this exact model year.
“The mapping system is out of date and tried to route me to an offramp that doesn't exist. I did some research and found the offramp changed over 4 years ago, roughly when the car was built. I took the car to my local dealership to get the maps updated and Porsche claims I have the latest map. I think this is a dangerous situation if someone tried to drift off the road in bad weather (for example) where an offramp doesn't exist. Their newer cars show the correct mapping. Porsche should be made to make the latest maps available to all their cars. It would cost them nothing if they simply posted the data on a website for a user to move it to a USB drive and plug it into the car.”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · Mar 2026
“Porsche dealers are not fixing this recall. They offer service appointments 6 months in advance, and then cancel at the last minute. I've been trying to get this recall done for 18 months, with no success.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jan 2026
“Within a few days of a rain event, I start getting errors involving the lane keep assist, automatic, emergency, breaking, forward collision, warning system, lane departure assist, headlight control unit. God has been taken to the dealership three times in the last six months for this problem and it keeps coming back. This is a safety issue and I don't feel comfortable taking the car out for a drive when it rains or within a few days after a rain event”Owner report · Lane Departure · Dec 2025

“Engine control error - Park vehicle in a safe space. This error occurred after pressing the accelerator pedal upon switching from Normal to Sport Plus drive mode. When coming to a stop, I tried to accelerate the car but it would jerk. I stopped, put my emergency signal on, turned off and on the car and the error went away.”Owner report · Engine · Aug 2025
“Driving at 45 MPH, and suddenly the car lost the ability to accelerate. It has no power/torque. It seemed to be able to maintain the speed (but not entirely sure or if it was coasting). I had limited areas on the road to turn so took last possible turn to pull over. A shutdown/start corrected the situation. No warning lights or indicators of any kind appeared. Cannot reproduce, which makes this situation more frightening. No other symptoms or warnings before.”Owner report · Electrical System · Aug 2025
“While waiting for light to turn green atba highway off raml, the car dash displayed two errors in quick succession and would not move. The errors were "Engine control error Park vehicle in a safe place" and "Electrical system error Restarting not possible, Service required". There was also an error about PSM, but I wasn't able to get a picture of it. I turned the car off and back on, which did not resolve the error. I then turned the car off, got out of the car, locked it, and got back in and turned it back on and it drove normally. This has happened twice.”Owner report · Electrical System · Jun 2025
“The contact owns a 2022 Porsche Taycan. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V221000 (Air Bags). The contact called a dealer about the recall and was advised that there was no part yet available for the recall repair. The contact called the manufacturer and was provided with similar information. The contact stated that there was a failure, but did not feel safe while a passenger was seated in the front seat. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The failure mileage was unknown.”Owner report · Air Bags · May 2025
“While driving on the city streets, the vehicle would not accelerate properly. At a stop sign, when pressing the accelerator, the vehicle started to jerk forward slowly and would not accelerate properly. A turtle started to flash on the cluster display. Trying to get to a safe location, the vehicle kept jerking forward slowly while slowly increasing speed and flashing the turtle icon.”Owner report · Power Train · Aug 2024
“While driving on the freeway at 65 mph, the vehicle suddenly began to quickly decelerate. Pressing the accelerator pedal had no effect. The car behind me quickly swerved to avoid hitting me. I was able to maneuver the car onto the shoulder and very slowly exited the freeway. I noticed a warning light shaped like a turtle on the cluster display flashing. I stopped fully and turned off the vehicle. The car was then towed to the nearest Porsche dealer. One week later, the dealer was inspected the vehicle and was unable to reproduce the issue. No repair was performed and Car was returned.”Owner report · Vehicle Speed Control · Jul 2024
“Porsche sent a "Important Safety Recall" notice to me dated January 22, 2023 about their defective power cable for the mobile charger for my Taycan. This notice promises that Porsche will replace the cable with an updated version "at a later date." It is now May 10, 2024 which certainly qualifies as a "later date" and there has been no further information much less delivery of an updated charger cable. Please have them make good on this promise!”Owner report · Unknown Or Other · May 2024
