What is wrong

What can happen
Brake pedal detachment can cause a loss of brake function and increase the risk of a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will tighten the pushrod screw joint, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 13, 2024. Owners may contact Polestar customer service at 1-800-806-2504. Polestar's number for this recall is RP1039.
