Customer Reactive Statement
The safety of anyone travelling in one of our cars is our highest priority. For this reason, we regularly review the quality of our work. In the course of these reviews, it was discovered that in certain instances, a wiring harness under the front seats in some 2020 and 2021 Taycan vehicles may get caught as the seat is moved forward or back. If this happens, it could make the seat harder to move or inoperable. In rare cases, the wiring harness may be damaged and could affect the supplemental restraint system (air bags, seat belt pre-tensioners), causing the red air bag warning
light to illuminate.
While no incidents have been reported, we will check the wiring harness in all recalled vehicles. Wiring harnesses that are undamaged will be affixed in place with additional material. Any that are damaged will be replaced.
Customers whose cars are affected will be contacted in due course for the work to be carried on a date convenient to them. There will be no charge for this work.
Chronology :
In 2021, Porsche became aware of several seat adjustment complaints caused by fabric sheath being caught in the seat adjustment mechanism. No wire harness damage was reported at that time. Porsche
began to monitor for additional complaints related to the subject issue.
Between January 2022 and April 2022 additional field analysis identified 3 instances (outside of United States) of wire harness damage resulting in the activation of the RED air bag warning lamp.
While Porsche is not aware of any injuries associated with this issue, on April 20, 2022 Porsche
decided to conduct a Safety Recall as a precautionary measure.

Customer Reactive Statement The safety of anyone travelling in one of our cars is our highest priority. For this reason, we regularly review the quality of our work. In the course of these reviews, it was discovered that in certain instances, a wiring harness under the front seats in some 2020 and 2021 Taycan vehicles may get caught as the seat is moved forward or back. If this happens, it could make the seat harder to move or inoperable. In rare cases, the wiring harness may be damaged and could affect the supplemental restraint system (air bags, seANA5 Stop Delivery/Recall Campaign – Inspection and rework of front seat wiring harnesses 2 at belt pre-tensioners), causing the red air bag warning light to illuminate. While no incidents have been reported, we will check the wiring harness in all recalled vehicles. Wiring harnesses that are undamaged will be affixed in place with additional material. Any that are damaged will be replaced. Customers whose cars are affected will be contacted in due course for the work to be carried on a date convenient to them. There will be no charge for this work.

If this damage occurs, there is potential for components of the supplemental restraint system to malfunction and deactivate. FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR Description of the Safety Risk : If the wire harness becomes damaged, there is potential for components of the supplemental restraint system to malfunction and deactivate. If this occurs, a red air bag warning lamp would be illuminated as designed to alert the operator. However, if components of the supplemental restraint system are deactivated, this could increase the risk of an injury in a crash. Description of the Cause : The wire harness fabric sheath could be pulled into the drive spindle of the seat adjuster during longitudinal adjustment. While this is likely to only damage the sheath, in rare instances, this could cause seat wire harness damage. Identification of Any Warning that can Occur : Customers may experience seat adjustment malfunction, or abnormal noise during adjustment. If the occupant restraint system is affected, a RED air bag warning lamp will illuminate. Involved Components : Component Name 1 : Seat wire harness fabric sheath Component Description : Seat wire harness fabric sheath is designed to help protect the wiring harness from potential damage Component Part Number : N 105938 Supplier Identification : Component Manufacturer Name : Sumitomo Electric Address : Schertstr. 48 Sindelfingen Foreign States 71065 Country : Germany Chronology : In 2021, Porsche became aware of several seat adjustment complaints caused by fabric sheath being caught in Part 573 Safety Recall Report 22V-278 Page 3 The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 the seat adjustment mechanism.

While Porsche is not aware of any injuries associated with this issue, on April 20, 2022 Porsche decided to conduct a Safety Recall as a precautionary measure. Description of Remedy : Description of Remedy Program : The seat wire harness will be inspected for damage. Textile fabric tape will be added to further secure the harness under the seat and help prevent potential for harness damage during seat adjustment. If only the fabric covering of the wiring harness is damaged, the loose fibers will be removed and the damaged area will be covered with a fabric tape. If electrical wires are damaged, the affected wires will be repaired according to the procedures in the workshop manual The owner’s letter will not include a statement about customer reimbursement for pre-notification remedies as all of the affected vehicles are still covered under Porsche New Car Limited Warranty. How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component : The subject component will be further secured with a textile fabric tape to help prevent potential for harness damage during seat adjustment.
