Picked up my 2021 Taycan 4s in March. 6 other Taycans were being delivered that day so the usual Porsche delivery experience was replaced by handing me the fob and my sales guy telling me I probably knew more about the car tech then him…which was true. I love the car and expect issues as it’s a giant computer on wheels… but the car has a mind of its own. Been in the shop twice now for 1 week periods each. The last time they did find some software issues and replaced driver assist model. Still having issues. Last week I had a Taycan 4s loaner which had no issues… but also seemed to have an older PCM software.
1. park assist randomly tells me it is unavailable after working seconds before. A car restart fixes problem
2. Random AC setting change every time I get in car… never the same from when I was last in it. And no… no one else was driving.
3. Radio factories have disappeared completely twice now. Once they came back a day later. Second time never came back.
4. Engine control failure once on a back road near my house going 60. Was able to coast to shoulder and restart. Scary.
5. Hand motion to open frunk no longer working
6. expanded map view on cockpit display… I keep turning on satellite view and randomly turns off when restarting car
7. strange charging errors when 100% charged… the app shows a charging error… but the car display has no error
8. Charging issues at EA station… first charge attempt tries to charge car at 7 miles a minute then bombs out… have to start over then it charges at 3 to 4 miles a minute without issues.
9. Sirius stations list does not show the songs on each station… but I read a software update caused this and everyone is complaining about it.
10. Since getting car back my Sirius keeps telling my I’m in trial Period. Will try sending a refresh single.
Those are the main issues. I keep a log with notes and photos and try to video some of the odd behavior that Porsche can’t seem to replicate.
Hoping software updates will correct all the issues but frustrating that most can’t be replicated while in the shop.
