- Problem

- Risk
- A rearview camera image that does not display reduces the driver's view of what is behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- The software will be updated by a dealer or through an over-the-air (OTA) update, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 24, 2025. Owners may contact Polestar's customer service at 1-800-806-2504. Polestar's number for this recall is RP1057.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
What this recall means for you
The rearview camera image may fail to appear on the screen when the vehicle is put in reverse. Without that image, the driver has less view of what is behind the vehicle, which raises the risk of a crash.
The fix is a software update that can be installed by an authorized dealer or delivered over the air, and it is free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed June 24, 2025. If you have questions, you can contact Polestar customer service at 1-800-806-2504 and reference recall RP1057.
You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) on the NHTSA recall lookup site to confirm whether your vehicle has any open recalls.
