Transport Canada lists: 911 2020–2025 · Cayenne 2019–2025 · Panamera 2024–2025 · Taycan 2020–2025

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image not to appear on the display. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse gear.

Why it matters

A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the driver assistance system control unit software.

Heater And Defroster

Transport Canada recall 2025572 · manufacturer campaign ASB0

20 October 2025

Transport Canada lists: Taycan 2020–2024

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the recall repairs completed by a Porsche dealer during recall APA7 (Transport Canada recall no. 2023-313) may not be effective. As a result, a second repair may be required. On certain vehicles, the high-voltage electric heater could fail. If this happens, you may experience reduced cabin heat, and the windshield defrost system may not work properly. Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall no. 2023-313.

Why it matters

A windshield defroster that doesn't work may cause reduced visibility and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Porsche will notify owners by mail. For certain vehicles, as an interim repair, Porsche will advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the passenger compartment high-voltage electric heater with a new part of the same design. When the final repairs are available, Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the passenger compartment high-voltage electric heater with an improved part.

Transport Canada recall 2025181 · manufacturer campaign ASA2

9 April 2025

Transport Canada lists: Taycan 2022–2023

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the passenger occupant classification system may malfunction. This could cause the airbag system to turn off the passenger-front airbag even when a passenger is seated. Note: This problem would cause an error message to display on the instrument panel and a warning chime to sound. The airbag indicator light would also display "passenger airbag off".

Why it matters

An airbag that is turned off could increase the risk of injury to a passenger in a crash.

What the dealer will do

Porsche will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the passenger-front seat cushion. Porsche advises that you shouldn't use the front passenger seat if an error message displays on the instrument panel or if the airbag indicator light displays "passenger airbag off" with an occupant in the seat.
