I was driving in the fast/lane of the freeway, and suddenly the car flashed red "Electrical System Error" "Park Vehicle in Safe Place". The car immediately started to decellerate on its own and I didn't have time to go over to the right so had to move into the left shoulder of the freeway. I was stuck in the middle of the freeway, with cars driving fast coming around a bend of the freeway behind me having to swerve out of the way. Cops finally came to give me cover from behind. Dealership still trying to figure out what the issue is.

It appears that the vehicle 12volt system battery has failed and I am unable to move the vehicle. I have tried to charge the 12volt battery but the car remains undrivable. I had the car towed to the dealership and they have said that the car needs a new 12Volt battery but it is on backorder and that they continue to work with the factory to resolve the issue.

I got an -€œElectrical System Error. Park vehicle in a safe place-€ while I was on the freeway. I had to exit the freeway and shut down the vehicle and the error went away. I am hesitant to drive the vehicle, I am in the process of having the vehicle flat bedded to my dealer.

Suddenly my vehicle showed "electrical system error", then it can't move, no matter forward or reverse, luckily it was parked in my garage, I can't image if it was on highway when your vehicle suddenly lost power. I don't remember how many times my Taycan was recalled in past 1 year, but it looks Porsche still haven't figure it out, maybe it's still a prototype.

My Taycan 4S has now on two occasions, while I-€™m driving, on the freeway, during the daytime, had all the instrument cluster displays go blank for 20-30 sec then reboot-€¦ Very disconcerting at best... dealer tells me this is NORMAL!, hard to believe its normal.... for me it's a safety issue.

My 2020 Taycan Turbo was purchased brand new by myself July 07/ 2020, and has had a tremendous amount of problems and issues. All are documented and have photos as proof. The car is available for whomever wishes to inspect it. One of the more recent issues was the car - without warning - while I was driving, not functioning and I wasn't able to turn the wheel, use the gas pedal, the brake or anything. Nothing in the car was operable. After it coasted ( I was almost rear ended but luckily the other driver veered off the road to avoid a collision.) the brakes decided to work. A red light came on which reads " Engine Control Error, Park vehicle in a safe place ", along with photos of 2 cars with exclamation points on them. Also illuminated was a photo which shows a photos of a drive train and 4 wheels. After turning the car on and off several times, the car decided it would operate. I drove it to the dealership. More comments and issues to be added. - Numerous - Have photos of All

As per the recently announced investigation on 5/21/21 into the 12 volt battery issue that rendered the car unable to drive, I had the same issue arise today (5/22/21) where an electrical error made the car inoperable and unable to power on any systems. In order to get the car on flat bed tow truck, they had to charge back the 12 volt battery to get car into neutral.

As I was coasting to a stop at a stoplight the car shuddered and lost all power from the engine. I was able to stop the car and a red warning on the dashboard said 'drive system control fault, park vehicle safely'. I've heard from a number of other Taycan owners and they have had the same problem while driving, in some cases on the freeway and had to stop in the left hand lane. I believe this fault is very dangerous and serious. I am very concerned this could happen to me while driving at speed, and could result in an accident and/or injury to me or others. The car did reset after I turned it off and restarted, and I did not have a problem for the rest of the day. The car is currently at the dealer.

The car showed an electrical error & lost power then shut down on the freeway. Once the car came to a complete stop I was unable to get out of the vehicle because it locked me inside. This is a safety hazard and had I not take the precautions to exit the freeway I may not have survived. This needs to be investigated as from what I've ready, this has been a common issue in this vehicle. It happened first on the, 'December 16th & then again December 25th. Software and the 12V battery were replaced the first time, and the day after the car was picked up from service it happened again.

- Cedar Hill, TX, USA

On two different occasions the car had catastrophic failures due to the 12 V battery draining for no reason. And one occasion the car had a catastrophic failure due to the main battery system having a failure. All of this happened in the first four months of ownership. All times the vehicle with stationary.

Car was towed to Porsche and they have no answers after 3 days. This was very dangerous, as the car slammed on the breaks and stopped in the middle of the road.

I was trying to leave a parking spot. I put the car in drive mode & it didn't move. The vehicle showed the message: 'motor control error ' move vehicle to a safe place' and was encircled by a red light. I turned the car off and on several times thinking vehicle would reset itself. But vehicle would not move. The car would go in neutral mode, but not drive mode.
