“Our vehicle will not charge using our home charging system, even though Polestar’s loaner vehicles charge without issue. We took delivery of the Polestar in early January, but it has spent nearly half the time since then at the service center.”

NHTSA complaint #11646040, filed 2025-03

“The steering wheel has a piece of high-reflective chrome as does the entire front dashboard (and high reflective trim of the speaker on the top of the dash). When the sun is high in the sky, depending on the angle of car, the sun creates a BLINDING reflection in the driver's eyes. I almost got in to accident because of this. They need to find a solution to replace those high-reflective parts of the interior with something that is matte and non-reflective. It is very dangerous. I also reported this to Polestar.”

“There are several issues with this vehicles, but here are the two most glaring safety issues: 1.) Emergency Braking System - on two occasions this was activated with no actual emergency. The first was simply turning left at an intersection. I was ~10ft away from the car in front of me and keeping the same speed or less than that car. The emergency braking was activated and the vehicle came to an almost full stop. The vehicle behind me nearly hit me. There was no reason for this to be activated and nearly caused an accident rather than prevented one. …”

“I leased a 2025 Polestar 3 in February 2025. Within days, I began to experience serious discomfort. It started with a sensation of inner-ear pressure. It got worse the more time I spent in the vehicle and soon escalated to headaches, dizziness, and nausea. The vehicle is undrivable for me now, and, worse, the sensation of pressure hasn't completely gone away even though I haven't driven the vehicle in weeks. The problem seems to stem from the vehicle's active noise cancellation (ANC) system. I notified Polestar Corporate of the issue on approximately February 26, 2025. …”

NHTSA complaint #11656463, filed 2025-04

“Since taking delivery of the vehicle, multiple electronic and computer-related systems have failed or malfunctioned. Initial issues included unreliable phone synchronization, dropped phone calls, and failure of the driver memory profile system, including seat and side mirror memory settings. Over time, the problems have become more serious and now involve safety-related systems. The vehicle intermittently displays SOS system failure warnings. …”
