The contact owns a 2022 Porsche Taycan. The contact stated that the vehicle was fully charged however, after three days of inactivity the battery drained. The contact contacted the dealer who had not officially diagnosed the vehicle. The dealer stated that the battery needed to be recharged to transport the vehicle to the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 150.
Without warning the car flashed an "Electrical Failure" warning and then lost all power and coasted to a stop while "bucking" slightly. This stranded us on the side of a narrow 2-lane road (NV28) with limited visibility. The high-voltage battery in the car apparently failed. This has been verified by the dealer. Our safety was put at risk by being stopped in a dangerous location on a narrow 2-lane road at night with falling temperatures. The "Electrical Failure" warning happened simultaneously with the vehicle losing power.
The car while coasting around 50 mph shifted from drive to neutral spontaneously. Then later shifted from drive to park spontaneously at a stoplight twice.
Car went into park once and neutral twice while stopped at approximately 1300 and 1700 miles. I took the car to Porsche dealer and was told they would investigate. After two weeks I requested car be returned. They had investigated but couldn't reproduce however car was only driven about 80 miles. They offered to investigate further on my car as they had installed diagnostic software and devices. They then decided they had found an employees Taycan doing the same and removed the diagnostics and returned my car to me.
