The 2022 Porsche Taycan is one of the most compelling electric cars on the road: fast, gorgeous, and as serious as a German engineering degree. It’s also been the subject of several federal safety recalls that every owner and used‑car shopper should understand. This guide pulls together the most important 2022 Porsche Taycan recalls list information in one place, in plain English.
First things first
Overview: 2022 Porsche Taycan recalls at a glance
Key recall campaigns touching 2022 Porsche Taycan
On top of those headline campaigns, some 2022 Taycans may be swept into brake system and wiring‑related recalls that were initially aimed at earlier model years but overlap in production dates. The exact mix depends on body style (sedan vs. Cross Turismo) and build date.
Don’t assume “no messages” means “no recalls”
Complete 2022 Porsche Taycan recalls list
Below is a simplified list of the major U.S. NHTSA safety recalls that clearly involve the 2022 Porsche Taycan as of April 10, 2026. Campaign numbers and Porsche internal codes are included so you can match what you see on an official recall lookup.
Major U.S. safety recalls involving 2022 Porsche Taycan
Use this table as a high‑level map, then confirm specifics with a VIN lookup for any individual car.
| System | NHTSA campaign | Porsche code | Model years covered | Does it include 2022? | Primary risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| High-voltage battery | 24V217000 | ARA4 | 2021–2023 (selected trims) | Yes, on specific 2022 builds | Internal short circuit may cause thermal event / fire |
| Front passenger airbag | 25V221000 | ASA2 | 2022–2023 | Yes | Occupant classification fault may switch off passenger airbag |
| Rearview camera | 25V896000 | ASB2 | 2020–2025 | Yes | Backup camera image may not display in Reverse |
| Brake hydraulic system | 23V176000 | ARB6 / related | 2020–2022 (primarily earlier cars) | Some overlap | Brake fluid loss and reduced braking performance on certain builds |
| Seat wiring harness | 22V278000 | ANA5 | 2020–2021 | Not typically | Mainly earlier cars; still worth checking a very early‑build 2022 by VIN |
Always rely on an official NHTSA or Porsche VIN check to confirm recall status for a specific Taycan.
How to actually use this list
High-voltage battery short-circuit recall (24V217000 / ARA4)
The recall that made headlines is the high‑voltage battery short‑circuit campaign, which applies to roughly 27,000 Taycans built from 2020 through 2024. Many 2022 cars are in that population, particularly performance‑oriented trims and Cross Turismo models.
- Issue: Certain battery modules can develop internal contamination or damage that leads to a short circuit.
- Risk: A short inside the high‑voltage battery pack can cause overheating and, in worst cases, an electrical fire.
- Symptoms: In some cases, drivers reported warning messages or a sudden loss of power; in others there were no obvious symptoms before failure.
- Fix: Porsche dealers inspect and, where necessary, replace affected battery modules or the entire battery pack, plus apply revised diagnostics and sealing measures.
Is the 2022 Taycan battery recall a deal‑breaker?
Front passenger airbag recall (25V221000 / ASA2)
In early 2025, Porsche launched a recall for approximately 9,700 2022–2023 Taycan vehicles over a defect in the occupant classification system (OCS) for the front passenger seat. This one is less flashy than a battery fire headline, but more fundamental: it decides whether the passenger airbag fires at all.
- Issue: The seat’s occupant classification system can misread a real adult passenger as a child seat or no occupant at all.
- Risk: In a serious crash, the front passenger airbag may be switched off, dramatically increasing injury risk.
- Symptoms: Repeated warnings about the passenger airbag, passenger airbag OFF light illuminated with an adult seated, or the system toggling unpredictably.
- Fix: Porsche dealers update or replace the seat’s sensing hardware and/or control unit and verify calibration so the airbag logic works correctly.
Real-world impact
Backup camera software recall (25V896000 / ASB2)
In 2026, Porsche added the Taycan to a broad backup camera recall that also covers 911, Cayenne and Panamera models. On affected Taycans built between 2020 and 2025, including 2022 cars, the rear camera image may fail to appear when you shift into Reverse.
- Issue: A software fault can prevent the camera feed from displaying on the central screen when you select Reverse.
- Risk: You may back up relying only on mirrors, which violates federal standards and increases the risk of hitting a pedestrian, cyclist or low obstacle.
- Symptoms: Black screen, frozen image, or intermittent loss of the rear camera view when reversing.
- Fix: Dealers install updated software for the media/control unit; in rare cases, they may replace the camera module if software alone doesn’t fix the issue.
The easy win
Other Taycan recalls that may affect some 2022 cars
Because Porsche staggers changes by trim and body style, the edges of some campaigns blur. Two categories are worth having on your radar when you look at a specific VIN:
Additional Taycan campaigns to ask about
These aren’t always applied to 2022 cars, but they’re close enough that you should check.
Brake hose / brake system recalls (ARB6 and related)
Several Taycan campaigns have focused on brake fluid leaks or reduced braking force, mostly on 2020–2021 cars, but production overlap means some early‑build 2022s may be involved.
- Ask whether the car has ever had brake‑related recall work.
- On a test drive, pay attention to pedal feel and warning messages.
Seat wiring harness campaign (ANA5)
An earlier recall addressed potential damage to seat wiring harnesses that could affect airbags or seat adjustment.
Most 2022 Taycans fall outside the primary VIN range, but if you’re looking at a very early 2022 build, use the VIN check to be sure.
Service bulletins vs. recalls
How to check if a 2022 Taycan has open recalls
The good news: you don’t have to memorize campaign codes. In the U.S., you can see all open recalls tied to a specific 2022 Taycan in under a minute with just the VIN.
Step-by-step: run a recall check on a 2022 Taycan
1. Locate the full 17‑digit VIN
You’ll find it on the driver’s side windshield lower corner, the door jamb label, and on any serious listing or sales contract. Copy it carefully, one wrong character can pull up the wrong car.
2. Search the NHTSA recall tool
Go to the official NHTSA recall lookup and enter the VIN. This will show any <strong>unrepaired safety recalls</strong> recognized by the federal database.
3. Cross-check with Porsche’s recall portal
Porsche also offers its own VIN recall checker. It sometimes shows internal campaigns and in‑progress work that haven’t fully propagated to third‑party tools yet.
4. Read the campaign descriptions
For each open item, note the system involved (battery, airbag, brakes, camera) and campaign number. This makes it easier to discuss with a seller or service advisor.
5. Ask for proof of completed work
If a seller claims recalls are already handled, ask for <strong>dealer repair orders</strong> or screenshots from the Porsche service history. “Dealer says it’s fine” is not documentation.
6. Confirm parts availability and scheduling
For open recalls that need parts, especially the battery and airbag campaigns, call a Porsche dealer and ask about lead times. This matters if you’re planning a long trip soon after purchase.

Recalls and used 2022 Taycan buying advice
The 2022 Taycan is now deep into its depreciation curve, which makes it tempting on the used market, and also where recall history really matters. You’re not just buying a car; you’re buying the previous owner’s relationship with their service advisor.
Questions to ask every seller
- Have all recall campaigns been completed? If yes, ask for documentation.
- Any outstanding appointments? A pending battery or airbag fix could mean downtime right after you buy.
- Where was the car serviced? A consistent Porsche dealer history is a good sign that recalls were handled quickly.
- Any buyback or lemon history? Some Taycans were reacquired for persistent electrical issues; that doesn’t automatically kill the deal, but it demands extra scrutiny.
Red flags worth a pause
- Seller is vague or defensive about any mention of the word “recall.”
- Repeated complaints in history reports about warning lights, no‑start events, or charging failures, with no clear resolution.
- Long gaps in dealer visits during periods when major campaigns were active.
- Car has been sitting for months waiting on parts, especially for battery or airbag repairs.
