The high-performance Porsche Taycan electric car is being recalled in Australia because the batteries could catch fire due to a manufacturing fault.
Risk of a fire has triggered a recall of the Porsche Taycan electric car in Australia.
The 231 affected vehicles are stamped Model Years 2022-2023. All variants are impacted by the recall.
“Due to a manufacturing issue, there is a possibility of insufficient sealing between the high voltage battery casing and battery cover,” the recall notice says.
