2021 Porsche TAYCAN - POWER TRAIN Failure Complaint (#b17678)

2021 Porsche TAYCAN

  • Date of Incident: Dec-11, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Dec-11, 2024
  • Failed components: POWER TRAIN

Vehicle lost propulsion while driving on the road. The motor (traction inverter) abruptly started to vibrate very aggressively, then the error warning "engine control error" flashed on the cluster display. The car immediately stopped responding to the gas/drive pedal and quickly coasted to a stop. After a full power-off then back on, the car woke back up like normal - as if nothing had happened. Happened twice now, each time within a few minutes of starting the car. This vehicle is not safe to drive at the moment.
