What's wrong

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2020-2021 Taycan vehicles. The pre-collision automatic hazard lights may activate in non-emergency situations. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."

The risk

An activation of hazard lights in non-emergency situations could confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will reprogram the hazard lights, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 2, 2021. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is AMC1.

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.
