Safety and recalls
Transport Canada · updated 2026-10-19No safety recalls on file for the 2026 Polestar Polestar 3 so far.
Earlier model years · 2025: 2
ElectricalWater could leak into the connector between the engine bay wiring harness and the front bumper wiring harness.
Issue
On certain vehicles, water could leak into the connector between the engine bay wiring harness and the front bumper wiring harness. If this happens, there could be a loss of power steering and/or certain driver assistance systems may not work properly, including the pedestrian warning system and parking assistance system.
Note: This problem could cause the vehicle not to start, the parking brake not to release and/or different warnings to display.
Safety Risk
A loss of power steering assist would result in a sudden increase in steering effort, especially at low vehicle speeds. This could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, driver assistance systems that don't work properly could increase the risk of a crash and/or injury.
Corrective Actions
Polestar will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the front bumper wiring harness and connector on the engine bay wiring harness.

Issue
Under certain conditions, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image to display the wrong camera view. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the vehicle is reversing.
Safety Risk
A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions
Volvo will notify owners by mail and send a wireless over-the-air software update to eligible vehicles to update the vehicle software. Alternatively, you may schedule an appointment to have the update performed at a Volvo dealership.
