I’ve purchased it two years ago, the campaign/recall have been out since July this year, and the parts have not been available since, the car was purchased new from the same dealership one year prior.

This matter is now in hands of my attorney, the total disregard for the safety of all 30,000 taycan owners is not acceptable, this could happen to anyone at anytime without warning, Porsche by not alerting us of the danger has shown negligence.

 

Kinda seems like you should have just added brake fluid, but what do I know. Good luck.

 

well, even if I had once the brake line breaks, well there goes the added fluid

 

how does this fix the flaw caused by the recall?

 

The flaw doesn't affect many or most Taycans. Secondly if his brake lines had broken he wouldn't have gotten the second warning saying his car is safe to drive. The problem involves a concern that the original lines are too short so in extreme conditions they MAY be stressed to the point of breaking. That doesn't seem to be what happened. I'm just going on the posts. If they broke and the dealership could have remedied the problem but didn't't, he has an issue. California lemon law addresses very specific situations. Again I'm only going on the posts. California allows the dealer to correct the malfunction. If a car is out of service for 30 days for the same problem it would certainly fall under the lemon law. This is the first post from this individual on his 4 year old Taycan. As an attorney I question going from 0 to 100 on a website. Sometimes people's motive is to try and rile other people up. I don't know, but it is weird. Check out my posts, or others that really are here seeking help from other owners. You won't find any from this individual.

 

Oh I should have been more clear about my bias. I don't think the election was stolen and I do believe we landed on the moon.

 

you obviously don’t know me and I’ll give you that. There was no warning whatsoever, two hours later there was a warning about the PSM system and 5 hours later I got a brake fluid low warning, I have absolutely no motive to post this other than make another Taycan owners the danger they and their families potentially be in. And not only a few Taycans are affected by this flaw, Porsche Co has publicly announced that 30,000 Taycans are affected, so that figure to me does not seem like “a few”. And in regards I, myself not had any posts in 4 years is irrelevant, I have not had the need to post anything, I come to this forums to learn and read about the brand we all are fanatic and admirers of, just because I have not posted anything in 4 years does not mean that this post about my experience necessarily means I am making this incident up. But that is your very own opinion. have a wonderful weekend. And for the rest of readers, if you are driving a taycan that this recall/campaign has not been perform demand from Porsche to make these parts available before someone does get hurt badly or worse.

 

I'm sorry, you are right about the fact that this is awful that a Porsche could have this problem. And you are right that I seemed to question your motives. For both I apologize. My issue is with your response. 30,000 Taycan owners are not suffering from what you experienced. Also they repaired the problem for you. I should have understood your frustration that they didn't make sure all affected cars were repaired before it inflicts some cars. I just know that the lemon laws only care about the remedies the manufacturers take. If they had kept your car over 30 days they would be required to buy it back without a question. It is crazy to think we can spend this money to buy these cars and be left stranded. I just have been so impressed with my experiences I've willing to give Porsche the benefit of the doubt. I hope this is resolved in your favor, but will tell you I've owned 4 different Taycans, and they are wonderful. The current one is a 2023 Turbo S Cross Turismo and I asked my dealer not to change the brake lines last week. I was in a hurry and being in Southern California I wasn't worried. Hopefully, soon, I'll have time to let them do the recall. Again, I'm truly sorry for my callous response to your experience.

 

apologies accepted, we are Porsche owner have invested so much money and trust on the brand and when something like this happens to you and you reach out to the company/manufacturer and they treat your incident as nothing potentially deadly and you are pretty much dismissed, it is not appreciated. As I had mentioned before am not looking for any compensation for what I’ve gone through, I purchased this vehicle because I trust the brand and as proof of my loyalty I can tell you how many Porsche I’ve owned in 23 years, I would not have purchased this vehicle had I it had confidence on the brand, it is pretty frustrating how this was handle by Porsche corporate, I’ll pick up my taycan from the dealership this upcoming Monday,
Gentlemen have a good weekend and thank you for reading and your responses on this very serious matter .

 

"but what do I know."

 

Please keep us posted. If you can share, what is your attorney's strategy?

Heads up: Been there done that. Porsche is a billion dollar company, will hire the nastiest attorney and prolly buy off your attorney. Most are for sale. Especially with guaranteed return on investment.

About a lemon buyback, they will offer the lowest Kelly blue book value.

To reiterate, Porsche is a billion dollar company; minimaxing profits is they goal...your and my customer loyalty is such a has-been. This is their reaction:

 

I'm still wondering what remedy you expect.

I got a notice on 8/12 about this recall.

It did not indicate it was a stop drive notice (like carrera gt owners got). so you have a choice. keep driving. or not. I kept driving. so did you.

Now the fact you had a failure which resulted in no injuries or damage, its likely you have no claim for damages other than the repair or a buy back of the car.

And sure, if you want to spend the money for a class action etc you could probably get this to be raised as a defect that warrants a stop drive.

 

I was thinking about this myself. Especially about people who post a "problem" and then don't follow up with outcome(s.) Sure would be nice if most would have the "community sense" such that we can all learn, that shares outcomes...not only problems.

 

Picked up the car yesterday from the dealership, 54 miles away, after 43 miles the dashboard lit like a Christmas tree, all kinds of warnings, error message, etc. car was towed back to the dealer.
So what else is wrong with these Taycans? All I am looking for from Porsche is to acknowledge the danger that they have put us in, I don’t know about some of you but brakes are rather important, the hostility about my concerns is rather worrisome, that some of you aren’t concerned about the danger of losing the ability to brake/stop your vehicle, just hope that what I’ve gone through does not happen to anyone.

 

I'm certainly not porsche apologist I have 5 of them currently and deal with their warts. Which I prefer over BMW and other makes.

My taycan is almost 3 years old. No issues with it OTHER than the recalls it has had, and some bubbling in the leather dash.

And yeah, I agree on brakes, but we all kept driving, who knows what triggered the hose to rip, they knew it was a problem, but felt the risk was low enough to not warrant a stop drive.
