2020–2021 Porsche Taycan: Seat Belts recall
NHTSA campaign 22V100000 · 5,305 units potentially affected · filed Feb 22, 2022
What's wrong
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Taycan vehicles equipped with an optional rear center seat. The center seat belt buckle wiring harness may obstruct access to the right rear seat lower child seat anchors, preventing a child seat from being properly secured. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."
Why it matters
An improperly secured child seat increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix
Dealers will reroute and secure the center rear seat belt buckle wiring harness and, as necessary, replace a damaged buckle, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 7, 2022. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is ANA4.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
