In a report sourced from the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) agency of the USA, the Porsche Taycan is to be recalled suspecting an issue involving the performance EV’s braking system. This recall could be applicable to pretty much every unit manufactured at the Zuffenhausen plant in Germany since 2019. Let’s take a closer look at the details provided in the document.

In order to rectify the issue, Porsche will fit the Taycan units affected by the defect with new brake hoses that have an increased brake hose radius. While the German carmaker will be recalling 31,689 potentially affected Taycan units manufactured since the EV was launched, the actual number of units with the defect could only be a fraction of the total.
The NHTSA report is primarily focussed on Porsche Taycans sold in the USA, and only 7 reports were received surrounding the suspected parts involved in the recall, starting June 2023. It does make a reference to a non-US incident involving a Taycan where the car was travelling significantly over the speed limit. We have strong reason to believe that it is referencing the recent fatal crash involving a Taycan in Pune, India.
