- The supplier of the battery module could be defective
Porsche India has issued a voluntary recall of the Taycan in the country. Over 176 units of the electric sedan have been recalled with a possible defect in the supplier of the battery cell or the module.
The models manufactured between 21 October, 2019 and 4 March, 2024 are said to be affected by the issue. As per the report, it has been discovered that the models produced in the aforementioned period could possess a defective battery module supplier system, which could lead to a short circuit within the battery module and could also cause the vehicle to catch fire post thermal throttling.
The automaker is yet to release an official statement on the recall. However, we expect the brand to rectify this issue as soon as possible with no cost charged to the customers. Owners of the respective models are advised to contact the nearest Porsche-authorised dealership to get more information.
