2019 Porsche Cayenne problems
The Porsche Cayenne is a series of automobiles manufactured by the German company Porsche since 2002. It is a luxury crossover SUV and has been described as both a full-sized and a mid-sized vehicle. The first generation was known internally within Porsche as the Type 9PA (955/957) or E1. It was the first V8-engined vehicle built by Porsche since 1995, when the Porsche 928 was discontinued. It is also Porsche's first off-road variant vehicle since its Super and Junior tractors of the 1950s, and the first Porsche with four doors. Since 2014, the Cayenne has been sold alongside a smaller Porsche SUV, the Macan.
The second-generation Cayenne (Type 92A or E2) was unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show in March. The Cayenne shares its platform, body frame, doors and electronics with the similar Volkswagen Touareg and Audi Q7. It received a facelift in 2014 with minor external changes, and introduced a new plug-in E-Hybrid version, with its public launch at the Paris Motor Show. Since 2008, all engines have featured direct injection technology. The third generation (Type PO536) was unveiled in 2017 at Stuttgart.
First generation (E1 9PA; 2002)
The original Porsche Cayenne entered into the global market to a mixed reception, but it proved itself to have excellent performance for an SUV and had comparably good handling as well as powerful engines. The lineup initially consisted of the V8-powered Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo. Later in the model cycle, VR6 and diesel-powered versions joined the lineup. In the eight model years of the E1 generation, a total of 276,652 units were produced.
The base model Cayenne is powered by a 3.2-L VR6 engine producing 250 PS (184 kW; 247 hp). The intake manifold is unique to Porsche, but otherwise the engine is largely the same as the VW engine. Acceleration from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) is 9.1 seconds with the manual transmission and 9.7 seconds with the Tiptronic S.

POWER TRAIN,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-19
- VIN: WP1AA2AY3KD
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ENGINE
- Summary: When car downshifts from 2nd gear to 1st gear, it lunges / jerks forward, even as brakes are applied. Porsche mechanic and Porsche Cars North America both indicate nothing is wrong with the transmission. THIS IS A CONSTANT ISSUE. EVERYDAY FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS. EVERY STOP.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2022-11-01
- VIN: WP1AA2AY2KD
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: 2019 Porsche Cayennes (and other Porsche models) have LiFe P04 lithium batteries that have an internal Battery Control Module that causes a "Battery Low " indication. Porsche has been updating the software/ firmware for this module, only for it to fail again. Eventually, the battery will fail, lose charge, and become dead. There are no after market batteries available and if you are 1 mile out of the warranty period, Porsche forces you to buy a new replacement battery from them for over $2,000.00 USD plus labor. This battery failure condition for vehicles with this type of battery is well known by Porsche and they now use a completely different type of battery in their newer models. This failure should be considered a Safety issue and concern since the battery powers every safety feature the vehicle has to offer. There are pages upon pages of testimonies on the Rennlist forum website for Porsche owners and all have been advised to contact Porsche Cars North America and only a small percentage have had any luck with that. Porsche should release a recall to modify the system to the newer, more dependable battery for affected vehicles.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-08-22
- VIN: WP1AB2AY5KD
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: Porsches with LiFePO4 Lithium batteries (like mine 2019 Cayenne S) have a software/hardware error that causes the battery to incorrectly send a code to the battery management system so that it will suddenly shutdown the battery permanently and will require a full battery replacement, which the dealers abuse its customers by charging $3,000 to $5,000 dollars and give a battery replacement date as almost one year later. Porsche has internal TSBs but it is not recalling all the customers to have the software update for the controller/sensor bug/defect so that the battery management system will not overcharge the Lithium battery and damage it or cause the battery to issue a software code that preventsbthe battery from waking up or be usable. Texas has temperatures of 110 F, and becoming stranded because the battery gets incorrectly/permanently shutdown is a death sentence to Porsche customers. Porsche is being arrogant with their customers and deeply profiting from this know defect. There are a series of small battery shops that are making money from Porsche’s defective battery controllers/sensors and charge around $500 to $800 to replace the battery sensor/controller and programming the new controller as long as you send them your dead battery. Porsche will not reprogram rhe battery controller/sensor if you replace the original battery, with no explanation on why. Anybody driving a Porsche vehicle that have these battery defects in the controller/sensor/programming will perish, together with their passengers, if the battery gets shutdown and become unusable in a 100+ F, 110+F or if yhey get stranded in a freezing situation. It's a deadly time bomb waiting to happen, if it hasn't happen already since Porsche is not being straightforward. Porsche even sells these defective Lithium LiFePO4 batteries on old cars 2019 models and others, and does not disclose to them that the battery can die unexpectely and hjat the battery is not within the warranty.

Last month, June, while my car was now out of warranty the same yellow warning light appeared but this time the dealership recommended i replace the battery at a cost of $3,200 Porsche refuses to accept that these 2 instances are related and that the battery should be covered since the software update during my first service visit didn't offer a long term solution. to make matters worse the lithium battery used in my vehicle has been an issue for porsche to say the least.

Negative 2019 Porsche Cayenne car reviews
Positive 2019 Porsche Cayenne car reviews
-
When you get behind the wheel of a Porsche, you know you're in for a treat. During my test drive, the sales representative assured me that it would perform even better than my 2015 model. I was skeptical at first, but as soon as I started up the engine and put it in drive, I knew he was right. This car exudes nothing but class, and it's hard to believe, but Porsche manages to improve with every passing year.
-
Hey there! Just wanted to give you a heads up about the different build options for the car. I know it can be a bit overwhelming to figure out, but don't worry, I'm here to help! As an SUV, the base model offers exceptional performance and a ride similar to a sedan. If you're looking for some serious power, you might want to consider upgrading to the S or GTS models. Overall, Porsche has done an amazing job with this versatile vehicle.
-
Great job on the performance and handling! It's also really quiet and comfortable. I noticed that the center display has a lot of information, which can be a bit overwhelming at first, but with some time it gets easier to use.
-
This is my second Cayenne. Overall, I think I preferred my 2015 model. While this one has better performance, I'm not too thrilled with the updated electronics. The drive system can be a little frustrating at times. However, the handling is terrific - as it should be for a Porsche. I do have some issues with the NAV system though. I can't understand why Porsche doesn't use a better vendor for that system.
-
A bit bigger than a Macan, but drives like a Porsche and plenty of power. Mileage is better than EPA. I get about 23 overall. Fine interior and a good upgrade from a Macan.

Are you having problems with your 2019 Porsche Cayenne?
Jason Ondricka 2025-01-05
This is my third Porsche. The car is exceptionally fast and handles superbly well, especially in Sport or Sport+ mode. The seats are comfortable and there is ample room in the back seat. The battery provides a speedy 20 miles of range on fully electric, making short errands a breeze. However, the fit and finish quality issues are concerning, with poor paint quality and misaligned panels. Additionally, there are rattles with certain radio songs and it doesn't seem as well put together as my Jeep Grand Cherokee. Despite these issues, the hybrid technology is truly amazing and the engineers did a great job. Overall, while the MSRP of around $91K for a basic trim is steep, the car's exceptional performance and innovative technology make it a worthwhile investment.If you are considering owning a hybrid Porsche, it is important to consider the long-term impact of the hybrid drive and power train on the engine. The car requires the ICE engine to engage at any time, even when cold, which can be a lot for any engine to handle. Additionally, the limited range of 20 miles can be very limiting and once it is over, the car loses its speed. In conclusion, if you are looking for an electric car, Tesla is the way to go. Porsche is not there yet and the uncertainty of long-term residuals makes it a better option to lease rather than buy. Furthermore, Porsche should consider improving the ergonomics of their cars, as they are not up to par with other car manufacturers. The Bose Stereo system is also not great and does not feel of the same quality as other Porsche products. Improvements should be made to bring the production back to Germany. We will provide an update after a few months.
Pietro Dare 2024-11-28
When test driving a Porsche, it's important to keep in mind that the company may consider some abnormal things to be normal. I am currently in arbitration about my custom order Cayenne Turbo, which cost me $165k. While buying the car was the best experience I ever had, the following year has been difficult due to issues with the PSCB brakes. I recommend doing your research and avoiding these brakes, as they tend to squeal loudly when coming to a stop. Instead, consider investing in PCCB brakes for a better driving experience. If you're looking for a high-performance SUV, it may be worth waiting for Porsche to release a newer model or exploring other options. Despite my issues, I still believe that Porsche offers a unique driving experience. I have evidence of my brake issues, including videos and pictures of a loose wiring harness, but Porsche claims that these issues are normal.
Rey Cartwright 2024-11-23
The brakes on my 2019 Porsche Cayenne tend to squeal at low speeds, which is quite bothersome. According to my Porsche dealer, this is a common issue with all 2019 Porsche Cayenne models and there is no immediate solution. I find it unacceptable to have such noisy brakes in a vehicle that costs over $90,000. This experience has left me disappointed and I would not consider purchasing another one in the future.
Camren Kreiger 2024-10-19
The Porsche Cayenne hybrid unfortunately experienced a breakdown at 35,000 miles and was unable to be repaired. The offer to buy back the vehicle was not satisfactory and the overall experience was quite disappointing. As a previous owner of four Porsches, I was surprised by this negative experience and have decided not to purchase from them again. It is important to exercise caution when considering a purchase from this brand.
Durward Barrows 2024-08-29
I've been driving my 2019 Cayenne Hybrid for a month now and it's been an absolute dream. The Sport and Sport Plus modes make it handle like a full-time sports car, while the Electric and Hybrid modes make my fuel last and last. There's plenty of room for golf clubs and camping gear, and the air-conditioned seats are a lifesaver in the desert. However, I did encounter an issue with the Apple Car Play installed in the car. Unfortunately, it's a stripped-down version that severely limits my ability to make phone calls. It's disappointing that Porsche would downgrade an otherwise great car with this software. I would recommend asking your dealer to share all the Apple Car Play features with you before making a purchase. Overall, I'm still very happy with my Cayenne Hybrid and would highly recommend it.
