6 recalls covering model years 2025. To check whether your vehicle is affected, look up your 17-character VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — a recall may apply only to some vehicles of a given year.
Some 2025 Polestar 3 vehicles have striker brackets that secure the rear seat backrest, and these brackets may be loose. Because of this, these vehicles do not meet federal safety rules for seating systems. If the brackets are loose, the rear seat backrest may not stay properly secured in place. A loose rear seat backrest may fall forward, allowing cargo behind the seat to enter the passenger area if the vehicle is in a crash.
Polestar is recalling certain 2025 Polestar 3 vehicles because the front hood wing bumper may be missing bolts. Without these bolts, the bumper could come loose and detach from the vehicle. Polestar will inspect the bumper for missing screws, and if any are missing, the bumper and screws will be replaced.
On some 2025 Polestar 3 vehicles, the panoramic glass sunroof may not be properly secured and can detach from the vehicle.
On certain Polestar 3 vehicles, water may damage the electrical connectors between the engine bay and front bumper cable harnesses. Damage to these harnesses can cause various electrical problems, such as a loss of power steering assist, which increases the risk of a crash or injury.
Polestar is recalling certain Polestar 3 vehicles because the rearview camera image may not display on the screen when the vehicle is placed in reverse. Because the image does not display, these vehicles do not meet a federal motor vehicle safety standard for rear visibility.
On some Polestar 3 hybrid electric vehicles, changes in the 12-volt electrical system may damage a part called the High to Low Voltage Converter Module. A damaged module can cause the vehicle to suddenly lose drive power.
