Consumer Description

The day after receiving my Taycan 4S I took it for a drive and during the drive electrical system error popped up on the dashboard. Before we were able to pull over off the highway the car suddenly shut off and came to an instant stop. Being stuck in the middle right of the highway without even hazard lights working meant multiple cars had to swerve out of the way to avoid hitting us. I am not exaggerating when I say we could have died. Porsche road side assistance was horrible and unable to assist us in the moment. So the police were able to come after some time to block off the road and wait until a tow truck came. I had to pay for the tow to take us to the dealership in Manhattan (which was closed). Porsche road side service told us there was nothing they could do. Finally with the help of our sales rep they sent another tow service to take it to a yard.
