The defect

The high-voltage battery may have an insufficient amount of sealant, which can allow liquid to accumulate in the battery.
The risk
Liquid accumulation in the high voltage battery can cause electrical arcing, increasing the risk of a fire.
The remedy
Dealers will test the battery for leakage and replace the battery as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed October 31, 2023. Owners may contact Porsche's customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is APB2.
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.
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
