We own a 911 Carrera S Cabriolet (MY22) reg in Oct/21. A few months ago, my wife drove it back to London and the battery was dead the next day and Porsche assistance came and got it started but 3 units including the convertible top had shorted out and needed replacing. Then 3 weeks ago the battery died again and shorted the convertible unit again. Our local dealer where the work was done earlier this year is now saying that battery needs to be replaced at our cost for £1500. I cant believe this as Porsche batteries are covered for first 4 years under warranty in the US. Plus they are saying now that we should have been plugging the battery in. If they had told us this when we bought the car or earlier this year after the first battery episode then I could see how it might be our fault but they did not. The dealership has submitted a goodwill proposal to Porsche HQ to see if they will cover any of this but im not hopeful as its been almost 3 weeks and no answer yet.
So my question is has anyone else in the club had similar battery issues and not being covered under warranty. Im just looking to ideally compare notes with other members.
Thanks
