Porsche Taycan And 911 Models May Be Missing Seatbelt Warning Chime | Carscoops carscoops
In documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,
that the vehicles aren’t defective, as such. Instead, they were simply given coding for the wrong market.That means that when an occupant enters any of the above-mentioned Porsches and does not buckle up, the car’s seatbelt warning behaves incorrectly. In fact, the warning makes no sound at all. Instead, the vehicle simply lights up a warning sign on the dashboard that stays on until the occupant in questions buckles their seatbelt.
As a result, the vehicles do not comply with safety regulations in the U.S. and Canada. In the latter market, seatbelt warnings must include both a visual and an auditory sign that a passenger has not buckled up.As has been well documented, vehicle passengers who don’t wear their seatbelts are much likelier to be injured in the event of a crash. That’s why both markets have specific requirements for seatbelt warnings.
Fortunately, since this is a software issue, it will be a relatively simple one to fix. In both markets, Porsche plans to ask owners to take their vehicle to a dealership to have their instrument cluster software updated, and brought back into compliance with regulations. American owners can expect to start being notified on May 16.
