The heater and defrost are not working which is especially dangerous during cold weather and/or humid conditions. The vehicle is at the dealership service center where they stated there have been a number of similar issues. The dealer has indicated they will inspect and repair. There were no warning lamps/messages prior to failure. To be fair, I never tried the heater before a cold spell this last week.
The heating system in my 2022 Porsche Taycan stopped working. In addition to it not being able to heat the cabin, I can't defog/defrost the windshield making the car unsafe to drive. I'm told by the Porsche dealer that this is a known issue, and the fix involves ordering a part from Germany with unknown ETA.
Vehicle heat all of sudden not working. Thus, unable to operate vehicle due to condensation on windows limiting visibility, in addition to cold cabin air. Car dropped off at Porsche dealer, and they confirmed no part availability to fix this widespread issue with Taycans.
No windshield defrosting and defogging in my 2022 Taycan 4S (purchased new a year ago). Impaired visibility. No heat in passenger compartment. Dealer found electric heater failed and needed replacement. The high-voltage electric in-line heater heats the coolant used for windshield defrosting and defogging, as well as passenger compartment heat. See attachment for system description. The Taycan electric heater is a critical vehicle component to ensure visibility and avoid crashes. In the last 2 years, over 70 Taycan owners (US, Canada, Europe) have reported Taycan electric heater failures in online forums. Three owners have had a second Taycan heater failure a year after the first heater was replaced. Taycan model years 2020, 2021 and 2022. See attachment for owner online posts with URLs.
