Porsche is recalling 388 examples of its Taycan electric sedan due to an issue with the rear seat-belt buckle wiring harness that may affect the installation of child seats.
This recall affects certain Taycan models sold between 2020 and 2021.
“The wiring harness for the rear seat-belt buckle may impair the access to the ISOFIX child seat anchoring system and prevent the child seat from being secured correctly,” the company said in its recall notice.
“Access to the rear right child-seat anchorage system (ISOFIX) may be impaired and there is no guarantee that the child seat will be secured correctly. This increases the risk of serious injury or death to occupants.”
- A total of 388 vehicles are affected

If you own an affected vehicle, you’ll need to contact your preferred Porsche dealer to schedule in a free inspection and fix.
