According to a report from the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there may be a brake system problem with the Porsche Taycan, which is why it is being recalled. This recall may affect almost every unit produced at the German facility in Zuffenhausen since 2019. Let’s examine the information in the document more closely.

Taycan Recall Details
The NHTSA report states that some Taycan models may experience front brake line cracks that cause brake fluid to leak. This might decrease the front brakes’ functioning and raise the chance of a collision. Porsche USA provided the NHTSA with information that explains how specific driving circumstances might put stress on the brake hoses at the minimum bending radius, which over time can harm the hoses’ inner fabric layer.
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.
