2024 Macan EV bricked this morning

[kaiju]

My wife (mother of two) came down this morning and doors were all locked. We couldn’t get into with either of 2 fobs or app for about an hour. I remembered, oh I have physical manual keys but somehow doors did unlock I guess via the fob automatically.
Finally got in but no luck with reset using 30s on main button in center lower console. Car will not go into drive (or any gear) there is a white small icon like a warning triangle and that’s it. On/off does nothing. Fob can open frunk and yellow interior lights flash.
Any idea what’s going on!
It’s Sunday Mother’s Day so I only could call roadside- they are on their way I guess to tow the car away.

not to freak you out, but similar happen to my (one of the 1st delivered) 2020 taycan turbo s, during the beginning of the pandemic during lockdown, when I let it set for about 2-3 weeks straight after delivery. I checked on the app and it had like 80%+ charge but when I go to drive the car it was dead/bricked where the PCM was unresponsive and the car as well, but I had no problem getting in as the car was unlocked in my driveway the whole time. they ended up lemon'ing the car for me as the war in Ukraine started and the part they needed was manufactured in Ukraine, and couldn't get the part.

update on what your dealer finds please!

24V battery too low?

a couple weeks ago i had the same symptom, explanation point in white triangle and car was dead. i also had the alarm intermittently going off without reason… car was towed to the dealership, they reset/reprogrammed the alarm, installed software update wsd0 and all has been ok since. it was not a 12 volt battery problem. hopefully your problem will be resolved as quickly as mine.

Seems like a 12V battery issue. If the 12V battery goes flat, there is no way to open doors or to wake up the high voltage battery.

It will be ofc nice to have a root cause. I guess I’m kind of hoping it’s the 12V since it sounds like a simple fix but, at the same time that would suck since we didn’t leave the car for an extended time. We charge to 80% every night and also drive it at least once a day so I hate for this to happen again out of the blue on a trip or late at night etc.

It’s at the dealer now getting looked at. I’ll update here with RCA.
