What is wrong
Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain 2020-2022 Taycan vehicles.

Dealers will update the software for the instrument cluster, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 14, 2023. Owners may contact Porsche's customer service at 1-[removed]. Porsche's number for this recall is APA5.
