@mmwbike Over pricing automobiles that fall apart early. Are both crippling automotive sales. In America in the 70's a new pickup truck with a V8, duel exhaust, heating and AM radio. Was priced at $2,500 a RollsRoyce was priced at $25,000. Add another grand to the Rolls. Which is the price of a very good used house. Now that same one ton pickup truck is priced at $100,000 or more. The $2,500 pickup trucks were built a lot more reliable. Than todays $100,000 disposible under 100,000 mile pickup trucks.

Many repairers cannot get insurance to repair EVs and with the number of dealerships burnt recently they too will not get insurance,, or if they do with very high premiums. Two Porsche dealers in the UK, BYD [burn your dealership] in China regularly

Definitely get legal advice. Porshe have miss sold you an unsafe car, especially with them admitting in the letter about the problem with the batteries. A very expensive mess and it's not your fault. The only reason they sent the letter is to.cover themselves incase the car catches fire and you or anyone else gets seriously injured or worse so in a way they're covering themselves - but at the same time that letter is evidence that the car is faulty
Worth looking into legal options. Just wait until others have the same issues irrespective of car brand. If insurance companies stop insuring people all hell will break loose. The government will need todo something - then again they might double down
@エラー-e7v The same thing happened in the UK this year with (keyless) Range Rovers, too many got stolen, and insurance companies just refused to insure them. JLR had to offer new buyers a manufacturers insurance policy, then this also stopped when new buyers tried to renew after a year ...
Take it back it's not fit for purpose! Under product liability laws, manufacturers and suppliers of electric vehicles must ensure that their products are safe and free from defects. If a defective product causes harm to the consumer, the manufacturer may be held liable for the resulting damages.

Do I understand Porche are going to put in a update computer program that will inform you if your car may be about to burst into flames. Very thoughtful of them.
Lee .......... IMPORTANT ........ It is irrelevant whether or not Insurance companies computers are connected. Your Porsche letter contains a 'disclosable' element re a potential fire-risk. If you were able to get insured to drive your car with another car insurance company, and rely on the Insurance company's own risk assessment for policy premium purposes (i.e. ... not disclose your Porsche letter) and, heaven forbid, you became involved in a road traffic collision, the insurance companies risk assessor will surely be aware of the types of get-out 'disclosure' clauses that may be available, and you could potentially find yourself liable, but uninsured, due to your non-disclosure ! !
So if they are monitoring your car at all times , they know exactly where you are, plus obviously they can shut your car down preventing your use of said vehicle when they choose to do so.
Soooo, when it is finally resolved and you do any insurance comparison you will be asked the question "have you had any insurance refused or cancelled?" to which you will then have ro answer "yes" and no quote will be provided It will then have to be individually quoted by each companies underwriter - an utter nightmare
@@davebloodstone3922 Yep then after that the extra pain in neck explaining it all & getting quotes from everyone again....though guessing many won't offer it or will be ludicrous charges!
One of the questions you’ll be asked on a new quote will be “have you been refused insurance” so your stuck between a rock and a hard place, surely this car is not fit for purpose and should be returned for a refund.
Buy an electric car the government says.. Phase out all carbon cars the government says.. its not just your car that has problems with catching fire there's lots of other EV style things caught fire like buses etc.
This does not count as being 'refused insurance'. If it were his policy would've been cancelled already; that is more about the personal behaviour of the individual i.e. did they lie about something. His insurer have simply decided not to quote for a new policy after the current one expires because it's outside their risk criteria. This happens all the time if you use comparison sites you will see not every company will choose to offer you a policy - this is not the same as being refused.
Technically you could say Lee has not been refused insurance, it's the car they are refusing to insure. If he wanted to insure a different vehicle they would take his business.
So if you try to insure a vehicle type they don't insure like a van for example, and they refuse to supply a quote, do you then have to tell all insurers you were refused insurance.?.?
The biggest kick in the nuts about this is that when you approach another insurer you will have to answer the question _ Have you ever been refused insurance ? Your truthful answer will be Yes. This automatically effects your ability to insure, even if you are going for a petrol.
If you can't park it next to a building in case it blows up, then it is not fit for purpose. It's a car, not an incendiary device! Porche need to show that it's safe with the monitoring, or take it back. One for the lawyers.
Insurance... There may be several hundred insurance companies, however, there are only a handful of underwriters. So if one underwriter refuses insurance, then you are likely not getting insurance again, even if you were to build a fire proof garage 100 meters from any building, you ain't getting insured.
Technically he hasn't yet applied for another year's cover so hasn't been refused. So if a new company asks if he has been refused cover he can truthfully say 'No'. Because he hasn't officially applied for cover.
@@jasonudall8614 If your next door neighbour is an alcoholic smoker who is likely to cause a fire after a bender, will your be refused insurance? There is not a section in your declaration that asks you about your neighbours lifestyles. You are not liable able for your neighbour's stupidity!
The possible reason would be tjat if your neighbours EV causes a fire, it could also set fire to your house, so having a neighbour with an EV could be a bigger risk for your house, thus sending your premiums up !!!

You won’t be able to insure it through another insurer as a standard question is have you ever been declined insurance & the answer to it is YES! As soon as you say that, they’ll avoid you like the plague!
Lee you would have to wonder if someone like Martin Lewis would be interested in this topic or would he just ignore to suit itv and his commercial relationships.

If Porsche have produced a car that is unable to be insured then Porsche have produced a car that is not fit for purpose and should refund your purchase price.
Ok so all cars on UK roads must have insurance. BUT Electric cars are probably becoming uninsureable. Regardless of which, The govt is mandating electric vehicles, and taxing petrol vehicles to get rid of them . Do l have that right????...????
The issue is only with Porsche and Jaguar. Having bad design from two companies doesn't affect BMW, Tesla etc. ICE cars are often recalled for fire risk.
EV is and never was the solution to greenhouse issues, this doesnt surprise me, how can a vehicle with a horrible chemical heart be green, it takes 10 years to get that green back, then have to recycle the horrible battery, how is that green, this is not tje fuel source to save us, never was
There is NO battery recycling. Until there is all EV sales should be banned. Existing ones should be banned from use and parked somewhere far far away.
You’re perfectly correct. I guess they thought since they fooled everyone on Covid they can fool everyone on the climate scam. Carbon is not the problem. Carbon dioxide can only keep 20 parts per million in retaliated heat from the earth. WATER VAPOR can trap much more heat up to 400 parts per million but the government can’t blame water vapor on the public and gain control of their traveling . I can’t believe people are so stupid as to not do the research themselves
Why would they insure a car that the manufacturer thinks it will burst into flames at anytime. The car must be dangerous to the occupants too. So it can’t be fit for purpose Lee. Take it back or take legal advice.
I think the only way you can get house insurance is if you get shot of the Taycan. Write to Katie Morley of The Telegraph or Martin Lewis to take up your case for Porsche to buy your car off you for the going market rate plus a gesture of goodwill. I'm sure they would wish to avoid the adverse publicity.
Car: Warning, your car is about to catch fire. You have approximately five seconds to evacuate. What? I'm on the motorway! Car: Oh dear, you're fu**ed...
2015 Consumer Rights Act means the product should be fit for purpose and the electric vehicle being uninsurable due to manufacturing issues means the retailer is responsible and the manufacturer is responsible to the vehicle dealer.
Cheers from here in Oz. The other unspoken issue is could this trigger insurance companies worldwide to eventually follow suit with a blanket policy of not insuring any EV and the properties they are garaged on.
Politicians are to blame for this, but will absolutely not come up with a solution! It is 100% their fault and people will have to pay for their shortcomings? Unreal!
Good, I can buy a disposable EV and park it outside Khan's house. Video it 24/7 because when it does catch fire the pictures will be worth a fortune. Newspapers will love those pictures... Just think of the headlines....

Lee, seriously, have a word with Porche, before going any further, explain the position you are in. This is totally unacceptable, the way things are leading to.
He's over half way through his lease so he can hand it back now with nothing to pay. He's clueless and made out he didn't even know what type of finance it was on.
@Un-Apologetic PCP doesn't work the same as HP, 50% takes into account the balloon payment also, so he would need to have paid 60k off before handing it back but he has also broke the terms of his agreement with the amount of mileage. So I doubt he could just hand it back and to avoid potential charges he would need to sell it but is in massive negative equity so wouldn't be able to do that either

@@davebloodstone3922 Yep then after that the extra pain in neck explaining it all & getting quotes from everyone again....though guessing many won't offer it or will be ludicrous charges!
One of the questions you’ll be asked on a new quote will be “have you been refused insurance” so your stuck between a rock and a hard place, surely this car is not fit for purpose and should be returned for a refund.
These EV s create nothing but anxiety.. imagine having two kids strapped in the back seats ..an the thing decides to self combust...
Buy an electric car the government says.. Phase out all carbon cars the government says.. its not just your car that has problems with catching fire there's lots of other EV style things caught fire like buses etc.
When asking for insurance they *Always ask if you have EVER been refused Insurance* And you would need to tell them
Good point.
This does not count as being 'refused insurance'. If it were his policy would've been cancelled already; that is more about the personal behaviour of the individual i.e. did they lie about something. His insurer have simply decided not to quote for a new policy after the current one expires because it's outside their risk criteria. This happens all the time if you use comparison sites you will see not every company will choose to offer you a policy - this is not the same as being refused.
Technically you could say Lee has not been refused insurance, it's the car they are refusing to insure. If he wanted to insure a different vehicle they would take his business.
So if you try to insure a vehicle type they don't insure like a van for example, and they refuse to supply a quote, do you then have to tell all insurers you were refused insurance.?.?
FULL REFUND.
and remember electric cars are heavy with more torque that is arguably the reason why their is more potholes
The biggest kick in the nuts about this is that when you approach another insurer you will have to answer the question _ Have you ever been refused insurance ? Your truthful answer will be Yes. This automatically effects your ability to insure, even if you are going for a petrol.
These are questions for WHICH/Blackbelt Barrister
Jaguar recalled 3000 EVS and paid in full the owners what they paid so Porse should do the same.
Why don’t you contact Porsche Insurance, it would be interesting to see what they say !!
@@hpman911 the issue is the car is dangerous,,,no amount of insurance can buy a life back,,treating the symptoms never saves the patient....
EV is not fit for purpose...FULL REFUND !!
Park it in the Porche dealership.
Park it next to the Houses of Parliament.
I got a mate here in Australia that is taking Mercedes to court as his EV only gets 60-70% range of what was stated.
If you can't park it next to a building in case it blows up, then it is not fit for purpose. It's a car, not an incendiary device! Porche need to show that it's safe with the monitoring, or take it back. One for the lawyers.
Our insurance is flying up because of the ev 💩
Insurance... There may be several hundred insurance companies, however, there are only a handful of underwriters. So if one underwriter refuses insurance, then you are likely not getting insurance again, even if you were to build a fire proof garage 100 meters from any building, you ain't getting insured.
So the new software will warn you when it's time to pull over and get out of the car because it's about to burn to the ground? Interesting...
One of the questions for insurance is: "Have you ever been refused insurance?". To answer "Yes" may make it more challenging to get insurance.
Technically he hasn't yet applied for another year's cover so hasn't been refused. So if a new company asks if he has been refused cover he can truthfully say 'No'. Because he hasn't officially applied for cover.
Watch the video I have.
Big brother monitoring every move. Who want's this type of control?
This is why they want everyone in electric cars , to monitor & switch off if non compliant with what ever they say
This saga with the Porsche has been running longer than 'The Archers'.
But, I thought that EV's were supposed to be the future!
They're the present
EV’s are only for those people who can afford to run them
Imagine one of these blowtorches on a ferry.
@@AcemeistreNot for the vast majority of motorists, they aren't.
On of the questions asked on an insurance application is " Have you ever been declined insurance ? If so, for what reason . "..........game over.
Park it at the Labour Transport secretary's house
No, Ed Milliband's.
Does this mean that a possible scenario could be that I might get refused house insurance if my next door neighbour has an EV ???
Shouldn't do.
@DwaynePipes indeed shouldn't....but this is insurance company talking
@@jasonudall8614
If your next door neighbour is an alcoholic smoker who is likely to cause a fire after a bender, will your be refused insurance?
There is not a section in your declaration that asks you about your neighbours lifestyles.
You are not liable able for your neighbour's stupidity!
The possible reason would be tjat if your neighbours EV causes a fire, it could also set fire to your house, so having a neighbour with an EV could be a bigger risk for your house, thus sending your premiums up !!!
Lee, were you mis sold an electric car between 2021 and 2024? you could be owed thousands, call the EV claim specialists now, we can help you recover all your losses, no win no fee, don't delay call today. 🤣🤣
You won’t be able to insure it through another insurer as a standard question is have you ever been declined insurance & the answer to it is YES! As soon as you say that, they’ll avoid you like the plague!
That's a good point..
@@darrylrixonphotography that is very true.
😂why were you refused? Because my cars a fire hazard, I have it in writing @NealPalmer-x9e
Give it back to the lease company as not fit for purpose and pay no more….. What a joke EVs are…
Fossil fuels are the future 😂
So, EV manufacturers are admitting defeat.
Back to petrol and diesel, oh, I never left.
Lee you would have to wonder if someone like Martin Lewis would be interested in this topic or would he just ignore to suit itv and his commercial relationships.
He walks everywhere anyway this is the plan 15 minute cities our Council in Dorset have just released their plan a garden city 🤦♀️ where you only walk or cycle this is without any consultation one of the councillors even has a criminal record follow your local Councils now before it's to late we need to fight & resist this dystopian nightmare
If Porsche have produced a car that is unable to be insured then Porsche have produced a car that is not fit for purpose and should refund your purchase price.
Ok so all cars on UK roads must have insurance. BUT
Electric cars are probably becoming uninsureable.
Regardless of which,
The govt is mandating electric vehicles, and taxing petrol vehicles to get rid of them .
Do l have that right????...????
In a nutshell, Yep.
The issue is only with Porsche and Jaguar. Having bad design from two companies doesn't affect BMW, Tesla etc. ICE cars are often recalled for fire risk.
EV is and never was the solution to greenhouse issues, this doesnt surprise me, how can a vehicle with a horrible chemical heart be green, it takes 10 years to get that green back, then have to recycle the horrible battery, how is that green, this is not tje fuel source to save us, never was
There is NO battery recycling. Until there is all EV sales should be banned. Existing ones should be banned from use and parked somewhere far far away.
You’re perfectly correct. I guess they thought since they fooled everyone on Covid they can fool everyone on the climate scam. Carbon is not the problem. Carbon dioxide can only keep 20 parts per million in retaliated heat from the earth. WATER VAPOR can trap much more heat up to 400 parts per million but the government can’t blame water vapor on the public and gain control of their traveling . I can’t believe people are so stupid as to not do the research themselves
No such thing as greenhouse issues. Propaganda
Why would they insure a car that the manufacturer thinks it will burst into flames at anytime. The car must be dangerous to the occupants too. So it can’t be fit for purpose Lee. Take it back or take legal advice.
I think the only way you can get house insurance is if you get shot of the Taycan. Write to Katie Morley of The Telegraph or Martin Lewis to take up your case for Porsche to buy your car off you for the going market rate plus a gesture of goodwill. I'm sure they would wish to avoid the adverse publicity.
Car: Warning, your car is about to catch fire. You have approximately five seconds to evacuate.
What? I'm on the motorway!
Car: Oh dear, you're fu**ed...
Yes. The time required to exit the vehicle and pull kids out of the vehicle is a big concern for me.
2015 Consumer Rights Act means the product should be fit for purpose and the electric vehicle being uninsurable due to manufacturing issues means the retailer is responsible and the manufacturer is responsible to the vehicle dealer.
While that may be the law, try to get Porchse to admit this.
Basically Porsche assume your got broadband to supply them with free data
Leave with the dealership until they fix it its not safe they should give you a car till its fixed its not fit for purpose
Cheers from here in Oz. The other unspoken issue is could this trigger insurance companies worldwide to eventually follow suit with a blanket policy of not insuring any EV and the properties they are garaged on.
Take the car back to Porch and stste it not fit for purpose
Politicians are to blame for this, but will absolutely not come up with a solution! It is 100% their fault and people will have to pay for their shortcomings? Unreal!
Absolutely spot on..
And the resale value plummets again because nobody will want the risk.
Good, I can buy a disposable EV and park it outside Khan's house. Video it 24/7 because when it does catch fire the pictures will be worth a fortune. Newspapers will love those pictures... Just think of the headlines....
Take the car back to Porsh and demand a replacement car for the intrim.
this little vid should be the death knell for EVs as a policy (govt induced of course)
What they want you to do is park it in the middle of nowhere so it gets nicked and they only have to pay out the current value, which is about nowt. 😂
Will we reach the point where EVs become unsaleable and owners have to pay for their"recycling"?
Totally unacceptable Lee and the carpark fire at Luon Airport, ..well most probably a cover - up yet again.
Is that Korea?
Carry a WINDOW SMASHER!!! How many people have been burnt alive in their electric cars because the car locks itself due to a short in the electrical system. No joke Geoff!!
Any car with electric locks can do this not just EVs, don't spread misinformation......
@@davedevonlad7402actually it's only happening in EV vechiles that people that are getting burnt alive so it's not misinformation
@@NickQuigley-dp9soA silly comment but seeing how you spell the word vehicle it’s understandable.
@@WaspvsHornet-rp7ue well my comment has been deleted by u tube, it wasn't a silly comment but it was the truth about EV'S and the deaths as EV'S don't have manual ways of opening doors !!!!
My last comment was written without my glasses so having big hands causes issues with typing
Why would anyone buy an EV? 😊
Starmer and the WEF are going to force everyone to buy an EV but they will still be driven around in range rover V8s
Other than a tesla
Lee, seriously, have a word with Porche, before going any further, explain the position you are in. This is totally unacceptable, the way things are leading to.
@carllockpick6179 Class action, same as diesel gate. Poor VAG.
He's over half way through his lease so he can hand it back now with nothing to pay.
He's clueless and made out he didn't even know what type of finance it was on.
@Un-Apologetic PCP doesn't work the same as HP, 50% takes into account the balloon payment also, so he would need to have paid 60k off before handing it back but he has also broke the terms of his agreement with the amount of mileage. So I doubt he could just hand it back and to avoid potential charges he would need to sell it but is in massive negative equity so wouldn't be able to do that either
