2019-2024 Porsche Taycan Recall 23V841: Charger Cable

Recall 23V841 covers 41,345 2019-2024 Porsche Taycan, Cayenne, and Panamera vehicles for overheating 220V/240V charging cables. Free repair once available.

Porsche is recalling 41,345 2019-2024 vehicles, including the Taycan 4S and Cayenne E-Hybrid, because the compact charging system can overheat an outlet or charging cable when used with an industrial 220V/240V plug at the 100% charge setting. An overheated outlet or cable can raise the risk of a fire, and Porsche dealers will complete the repair free of charge once it is available.

What's wrong?

The NEMA charging cable on affected 2019-2024 Porsche models is the cable between the wall power socket and the Porsche Mobile Charger. It carries household power from an industrial 220V/240V outlet to the charger so the vehicle can charge at home. At the 100% charge setting, that cable and outlet have to handle sustained electrical current.

The cable works with the outlet as a pair. Outdated dwelling wiring or a lower quality receptacle can create excess electrical resistance, which turns electrical load into heat at the plug and inside the cable. That heat can damage connector crimps in the cable. Once damaged, resistance rises further, so the cable or outlet can overheat even when the cable is later used with a recommended outlet.

The warning sign is heat you can feel. After charging, the cable can feel hot when you unplug it, which means the cable is experiencing increased electrical resistance.

Who's affected?

Scope spans Porsche plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles from 2019-2024, all tied to the NEMA charging cable between the power socket and the Porsche Mobile Charger.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific vehicle is included.

What's the safety risk?

An overheated outlet or charging cable can increase the risk of a fire. If the compact or portable 220V/240V charging cable feels hot when unplugged after charging, stop using that cable and use the 110V home cable or a public charging station until the dealer supplies the updated cable. Repair will be free at any franchised Porsche dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2019-2024 Porsche model is included in this recall.
  2. Stop using the 220V/240V compact portable charging cable at home until Porsche supplies the replacement cable.
  3. Use the 110V home charging cable or public charging stations while waiting for Porsche's second owner notice.
  4. Contact a franchised Porsche dealer and ask when the free replacement 220V/240V charging cable with the temperature sensor is ready.
  5. Reference recall number 23V841 and Porsche recall APB6 when you call the dealer or Porsche customer service.

What happens at the repair

For now, Porsche says owners should not use the 220V/240V compact or portable charging cable. Use the 110V home charging cable or public charging stations instead. Once parts are available, a Porsche technician will supply a new 220V/240V compact or portable charging cable with an incorporated temperature sensor, free under the recall. Parts and labor are covered. Porsche's standard reimbursement plan covers eligible repairs paid before the owner letter. Contact Porsche customer service with repair documentation to start that reimbursement review.
