What owners wrote
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.
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.
