2024 Porsche Taycan: Exterior Lighting recall

What's wrong

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2024 Taycan vehicles. The incorrect headlight control module software may have been installed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

Why it matters

Incorrect headlight control module software may cause the parking lights not to operate as intended when the turn signals are activated, which can reduce vehicle visibility and increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will update the headlight control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 25, 2024. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is ARB4.

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.
