Porsche Australia has recalled 19 examples of the Taycan electric sedan due to a fault with its high-voltage battery which could cause a vehicle fire.
“Due to a manufacturing issue, the cell modules installed in the high-voltage battery may be defective. A short circuit could cause a thermal overload and result in a vehicle fire over time,” the carmaker said in its recall notice.
“A vehicle fire could increase the risk of injury or death to vehicle occupants, other road users and bystanders, and/or damage to property.”
