On December 29, 2022, the heater unit in the car failed. This caused ice to form on the inside of the car, all windows. Winter in Chicago. Dealer said they are aware of other Tacans having this came issue but there are no parts available and could be 4 to 6 weeks for parts. it is now February 15th and still no parts and the car is unsafe to drive as you can not see out of the windows. If you look on the website in Europe there are reported over 800 of these cars with the same issue and now Audi is having the same issue. These cars are unsafer and should be removed from the roads.

Several times when driving (3) the vehicle loses all power and stops. Warning error messages are displayed on the dashboard screen ("Electrical system error") and "Engine Control Error" This is a dangerous situation, as the car suddenly just went dead on the middle of the highway. with cars having to swerve out of the way to avoid hitting my vehicle. The vehicle has been in the Porsche dealer once to have this issue rectified, but has happened again twice since that time.

While driving my Porsche Taycan 2021 (5000 miles) Nov 4th, 2022, at highway speeds on I-15 to Vegas, the instrument cluster started flashing "Electric System Error" and instructed me to park in safe place immediately and call Roadside Assistance. I had to park on the hard shoulder and wait for a tow truck. It was scary as there were big rigs passing my every 10-20 seconds. Car was towed to the Porsche dealer in Vegas. Upon inspection it was found that the "High Voltage Converter" had malfunctioned and had to be replaced. This is very concerning that a critical EV component can fail in new car, which had done just over 5000 miles. Dealer replaced the component and now the vehicle is running fine but I am very skeptical to take the car out on long drives.

Spontaneous shutdown of the vehicle while driving. Critical failure of motility while driving. Driving at 50km per hour extremely dangerous as car just shutdown and I had to try to roll off the road but it died so I had to put it in neutral and push it by hand on a busy road. Car has been at the dealer for 3 weeks now. The spontaneous shut occurred and a red light came on.

November 27,2021 Electrical System Failure. Car was parked in a parking lot. RED system failure error. After 30 minutes the car started and I drove it to Town Motors Porsche, Englewood NJ (purchase dealer). They had car for ~ 3 weeks and "everything is fine." July 6th 2022: Identical Electrical Systems failure. Again while car was parked in my garage. Car started on its own several hours later. Drove car to Town Englewood Porsche, Englewood NJ. The car is clearly unsafe and I do not feel comfortable driving this car. I do NOT want to be the first casualty because it fails on a highway. Porsche needs to take ownership. Taycan forum online clearly show that this is an issue with this car.

Electrical system error message appeared when I turned on the car. I exited and locked the car in an attempt to reset the system.

This time when I reentered the car it started and I drove home.

The car has 130 miles, right at the dealer parking lot, as I was about to set out a message appeared -?? electric system error-?? I was not able to drive further. If I had been on a freeway this would have been bad.

- Missouri City, TX, USA

This has happened more than once now. I got in the car and as soon as it attempted to start up, I received the following error: -??ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ERROR-?? I was not able to put the car in R or D. There was no other option to start the car. My car is 2 weeks old with less than 750 miles. Porsche has experienced a lot of these problems over the last 12+ months, yet this issue has not been resolved or acknowledged by Porsche. I am afraid for my safety because if this happens on the road or in traffic, there will be no way of moving this car out of the way.

I was stopped at a red light on a busy street with no-one behind me, one or two seconds before the light changed to green the car shut down with no error message or warning. By then vehicles had caught up to where I was stalled out at the light and had to swerve to go around me. After about ten seconds I was able to get the car started again and to drive off safely. The vehicle has been at the Porsche dealer for the past three weeks saying they can't duplicate the issue and have not "had time" to install the updates to fix numerous other glitches such as my phone randomly disconnecting from bluetooth, the center dash nav console randomly going dark, the XM radio can't be accessed (even though I have a paid subscription, Porsche hasn't been able to get that working during all this time either even getting on the phone with Siruis XM to verify configuration and subscription). 3 out of 5 times the garage door opener fails to open the door. There appears to be serious electrical and computer glitches happening.

On 4/18/2021 approxamtely 8:25pm. While driving at approxamately 65 mph on a los angeles freeway a red error message popped up that read "motor contol error stop vehicle in a safe place" the car stopped abruptly on the freeway. I wasnt able to pull over to safety. All of the lights were still on, on the instument control, the car still appeared to be functional. However, when the car came to a stop, (in the middle of a moderaltely busy freeway) it went into park and would not allow me to put it into drive. I turned the car off and turned it back on and it drove at that point. I took it to the dealer the next day due to them being closed at the time this happened.
