possibility that high-voltage batteries from a batch that does not conform to the high quality
standards of Porsche AG may have been installed in the affected vehicles.
As a result, the high-voltage battery may fail after the vehicle has been driven for just a short time. If this
happens, the message "Hybrid system failure" will be displayed in the instrument cluster.

Action
Required:

Replace high-voltage battery.

Affected
Vehicles:

The VIN(s) can be checked by using PIWIS Vehicle Information link to verify if the campaign affects the
