December 13, 2023 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 23V841000
Power Outlet May Cause Charging Cable to Overheat
An overheated outlet or charging cable can increase the risk of a fire.
NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V841
Manufacturer Porsche Cars North America, Inc.
Components ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Number of Units Affected 41,345
Summary
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling various models and model years. Please see the recall report for a list of the included vehicles. When using the industrial 220V/240V plug at the 100% charge setting, some home power outlets may be incapable of handling the electrical current required to utilize the compact charging system, causing the outlet or charging cable to overheat.
Remedy
Owners are advised not to use the 220V/240V compact/portable charging cable and only use the 110V home charging cable or public charging stations. Dealers will supply a new 220V/240V compact/portable charging cable with an incorporated temperature sensor, free of charge. Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk are expected to be mailed February 9, 2024. A second notice will be sent once remedy parts become available, anticipated mid-2024. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche’s number for this recall is APB6.
Notes
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.
Check if your Porsche has a Recall
Chronology :
In Dec. 2020 Porsche became aware of reports that the charging cables for certain Taycan vehicles would become hot during vehicle charging. Porsche investigated this issue and determined that the charging cable worked properly when new, but when used in connection with certain non-recommended lower quality electrical outlets, the cable could become damaged.
In May 2022, Porsche notified owners and implemented a service campaign (WMP2) with a software modification to reduce the default charging capacity of the cables by 50% to address this issue. Further information, recommendations, and cautions were provided regarding the appropriate electrical sockets to use.
In June 2023, Porsche became aware of further instances of overheating in Taycan charging cables, even with the power reduction. Porsche investigated this issue and determined that, even though the NEMA plug in the charging cable meets UL household use criteria, if it is used with a lower quality electrical receptacle, it can become permanently damaged, such that even when used with a recommended outlet, there could be elevated electrical resistance. More specifically, the connector crimps in the cable could be damaged due to overheating, leading to further increased electrical resistance and elevated temperatures. Porsche further determined that a new plug with an incorporated temperature sensor would eliminate this issue.
In late 2023, upon further review of the issue and the latest field data, Porsche identified 110 incidents of mobile charger malfunctions attributable to the subject issue. On December 6, Porsche determined that it would supersede the WMP2 Service Campaign and conduct a safety recall to replace the subject mobile chargers.

VIN Range 1 : Begin : WP0BC2Y17MSA88065 End : WP0BC2Y1XRSA68111 Not sequential Description of Defect :
Description of the Defect : In certain instances, the charging cables can become hot during charging when plugged into certain types of lower quality electrical receptacles due to elevated electrical resistance at the receptacle interface.
FMVSS 1 : NR FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : Increased resistance in the charging cable can increase the risk of overheating and thermal damage to the electrical receptacle and the surrounding area. If left undetected, the local thermal damage could potentially spread, resulting in a fire.
Description of the Cause : Outdated dwelling electrical wiring coupled with the potential use of lower quality electrical receptacles can eventually cause permanent damage to the charging cable, further increasing electrical resistance in the cable. Identification of Any Warning
that can Occur : A charging cable that is experiencing increased electrical resistance may feel hot when being unplugged by the user after charging.

Country : Germany Chronology :
In Dec. 2020 Porsche became aware of reports that the charging cables for certain Taycan vehicles would become hot during vehicle charging. Porsche investigated this issue and determined that the charging cable worked properly when new, but when used in connection with certain non-recommended lower quality electrical outlets, the cable could become damaged. In May 2022, Porsche notified owners and implemented a service campaign (WMP2) with a software modification to reduce the default charging capacity of the cables by 50% to address this issue. Further information, recommendations, and cautions were provided regarding the appropriate electrical sockets to use. The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573 Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-841

The information contained in this report was submitted pursuant to 49 CFR §573
In June 2023, Porsche became aware of further instances of overheating in Taycan charging cables, even with the power reduction. Porsche investigated this issue and determined that, even though the NEMA plug in the charging cable meets UL household use criteria, if it is used with a lower quality electrical receptacle, it can become permanently damaged, such that even when used with a recommended outlet, there could be elevated electrical resistance. More specifically, the connector crimps in the cable could be damaged due to overheating, leading to further increased electrical resistance and elevated temperatures. Porsche further determined that a new plug with an incorporated temperature sensor would eliminate this issue. In late 2023, upon further review of the issue and the latest field data, Porsche identified 110 incidents of mobile charger malfunctions attributable to the subject issue. On December 6, Porsche determined that it would supersede the WMP2 Service Campaign and conduct a safety recall to replace the subject mobile chargers.
Description of Remedy :
Description of Remedy Program : Porsche will replace the existing NEMA charging cable with a new charging
cable with an incorporated temperature sensor.
The owner’s letter will advise that Porsche offers a reimbursement for pre- notification remedies in accordance with 49 CFR 573.13. How Remedy Component Differs from Recalled Component :
Identify How/When Recall Condition was Corrected in Production : The remedy component includes a temperature sensor to detect potential overheating due to excess electrical resistance.
The charging plug with sensors was incorporated into production in Calendar Week 48 of 2023. Recall Schedule :
Description of Recall Schedule : Customers will be notified within 60 days of the filing of this report.
Planned Dealer Notification Date : JAN 10, 2024 – JAN 10, 2024
Planned Owner Notification Date : FEB 09, 2024 – FEB 09, 2024
