My cameras stopped working on my polestar 4. It was an exceptionally hot day and it was parked in the direct sunlight which potentially caused the electrical issue in respect of the cameras and centre display glitching. Contacted Polestar chat support, chatted to Daisy who was very helpful and guided me to reset the infotainment system which rectified the issue.

Faith restored by Polestar Customer Service and Volvo Leeds

My Polestar2 was delivered with what turned to be a very a minor issue - a rock lodged in the suspension.
I took it to my local Volvo dealership (BD postcode) who, whilst not being rude, were clearly not interested in fixing the issue - so I called Polestar customer service for advice as to what to do next.
Donna at Polestar could not have been more helpful. Within an hour, she had contacted my next closest dealership, Riverside Leeds, who in turn called me to book the car in.
Whilst the car was in the garage, I was given an office to work from along with a nice coffee. As with Donna at Polestar, Evan and Annabelle at Riverside Leeds were brilliant.
Thank you all for making it so easy.

Exemplary support from Polestar during a warranty issue

The Polestar support, in particular from Sam, was exemplary throughout for a case on my lease Polestar 4 which had an all-but impossible (and unique) noise to source and resolve. This issue, initially thought to require a day in the workshop, turned into a 5 month exercise and, throughout, Polestar's support was constant, informing and my mobility was maintained throughout with a loan vehicle.

Sam was exceptionally helpful from start to finish

Sam was exceptionally helpful from start to finish. He identified the issue straight away and guided the process to offer a quick resolve with regular updates and contact.

Even following conclusion, Sam made a further call to check that I was still ok with everything and was very pleasant to talk to throughout.

EXCEPTIONAL service and left me a very happy Polestar customer. This goes a long way in terms of advocation, as I hold a relatively senior position in the car and commercial leasing world with a market leader in the industry.

This score is not for polestar but it’s for the employee TEEGAN who showed extremely high levels of professionalism and I think good staff members like this go unnoticed so I would like to again thank TEEGAN for all the help.

Hi Sean,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your experience regarding the collection of your vehicle.

Whilst Polestar Finance is a separate company from Polestar UK, we understand the confusion caused by the different parties involved in the collection and inspection process. We also appreciate how concerning it must have been to receive a wear and tear charge without a clear explanation of the damage identified.

If the matter remains unresolved, please contact our Polestar customer support team directly and we'll do our best to point you towards the appropriate team for further assistance.

I'm coming from a Porsche Macan EV

I'm coming from a Porsche Macan EV, and I'm really happy with the Polestar 3. I love the car, I've had no software issues, and if anything, it's been more reliable than the Porsche.

The support team has also been incredibly responsive, and the delivery experience was smooth from start to finish.

My main criticism is the service experience. It feels a bit disorganized. On one occasion I arrived for a booked service, but the service center wasn't expecting me. Waiting times for appointments are around a month, which is frustrating if something unexpected happens. The service itself was also a little sloppy. Everyone was friendly and helpful, but after replacing the mirror they left glue residue behind, and I had to clean it myself.

I do wish Polestar offered a better service experience. Porsche treated its customers like royalty, and that's the one area where I think Polestar still has room to improve.
