## What is wrong

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. \(Porsche\) is recalling certain 2020\-2022 Taycan vehicles.  An incorrect warning indicator with an incorrect color is displayed in the instrument cluster when notifying owners of worn brake pads.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems," and 101, "Control and Displays."


## What can happen

An incorrect warning indicator may be misinterpreted and result in driving on worn brake pads with reduced brake performance, increasing the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Dealers will update the software for the instrument cluster, free of charge.  Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 14, 2023.  Owners may contact Porsche's customer service at 1\-800\-767\-7243.  Porsche's number for this recall is APA5.


## 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.
