Yes — in California, Lemon Law can apply to a CPO or used vehicle, but not because of the 18 months / 18,000 miles rule.
A used or CPO vehicle can qualify under CA Lemon Law if:
It was sold with a manufacturer-backed warranty (CPO warranty counts)
Or it still has the original factory...
Each State in the USA has its own lemon law parameters that apply to every vehicle (when you say Porsche lemon law that sounds like you are referring to a manufacturer’s policy to deal with the battery issue)
I am in California and in our state the lemon law and the basic parameters are:

In my case the dealer replaced both the motor and transmission plus……under californias lemon law they reimbursed me for all prior lease payments, taxes, registration, etc and bought the car back making me whole. I then started over with a new vehicle and upgraded to the GTS trim level. It’s...
The invoice indicated that after they checked the wiring harness faults remained so they were advised by manufacturer to replace transmission. Faults still remained so then they were advised to change the motor which cleared the fault messages. All covered under warranty but I have no...
I finally received my car back and learned the motor and transmission were both replaced. Curious if others have had both replaced. My car has under 6,000 miles on it
After many weeks in the dealership I have received word they are replacing the motor. I still have no details as to why but it’s related to the transmission failure warning light. It will be a couple more weeks before it’s ready for me to pick it up
Thanks for responding! I think there may be some confusion here—just to clarify, the Taycan is a fully electric vehicle, so it doesn’t have a traditional engine or exhaust pipes like an ICE (internal combustion engine) car. The procedure you mentioned about topping off transmission fluid while...
Well maybe you can guide this newbie. I went to search feature on site, typed in transmission failure and only my post comes up. What prompt are you using to get 40 hits?
Thanks, reviewed the Reddit thread and it indicates a couple experienced same issue but not clear if cause was identified. Dealer tells me they need to send a diagnostic printout of my readings to Germany to see if a software update can be identified to fix the recurring issue. They said it may...
I have experienced this warning light at least a dozen times either when first turning the car on or when parking /turning the car off. When it’s on the car will not shift into gear. If I turn the car completely off and then back on the fault light goes off and the car drives fine. Dealership...
On May 6 I took my 2025 Taycan to a dealer service dept for the first time. I wanted to install the campaign WRV3 software download which ideally takes approx 3 hours if all goes smooth.
Two weeks later I started making some noise as I was getting ghosted with text messages and vm going...
As new car prices rise due to tariffs, there may be increased demand for used luxury and exotic cars like the Taycan. This could potentially benefit those of us that just leased a new Taycan if we decide to sell or trade in our vehicle after the lease.
