Driver (left) side Charging Port Issue

[Bolt1323]

Hi, so the temperature hit -12 today. My left charge port door has not been able to open since I got it back from the dealer (Jan 5) but it was also unable to open for a while before that trip. Now my right charge door is not opening again. So I basically cannot use this car on long distance trips in cold weather as I risk being unable to charge. I will also create another thread as there is a high pitch whine on top of the electric motor hum. This car was absolutely not tested or made for the winter. Did Porsche assume these would be stored for the winter like a GT3 RS?

For those folks in Canada, how would I reach Porsche Canada? They need to know about the ridiculous issues that render this car useless for me.

Call: 1 (800) 767-7243

This is the Porsche NA number had to call it a couple of times when the dealership wasn’t taking my Macan 4 charging issue seriously.

Had the same problem (manual ports) on the right side. Mechanic and trim part were replaced by a updated / revision parts. They told me that the old trim part had some water issues underneath the ‘skin’.

Since this week I have the same problem on the left side (port won’t open). The car is going to the garage next week and the mechanic and trim part will also be replaced by an updated version.

I’ve attached some pictures from the current situation!
