2025 Polestar Polestar 3: Seats recall
NHTSA campaign 26V037000 · 213 units potentially affected · filed Jan 23, 2026
What's wrong
Polestar Automotive USA, Inc. (Polestar) is recalling certain 2025 Polestar 3 vehicles. The striker brackets that secure the rear seat backrest may be loose. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 207, "Seating Systems."
Why it matters
A loose rear seat backrest may fall forward and allow cargo to enter the cabin during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix
Dealers will inspect and tighten the rear seat backrest striker bracket mounting nuts as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 4, 2026. Owners may contact Polestar's customer service at 1-800-806-2504. Polestar's number for this recall is RP1079. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will become searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning January 30, 2026.
