AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE
- The defect
- Polestar Automotive USA, Inc. (Polestar) is recalling certain 2024 Polestar 2 electric vehicles. The clamps may be improperly crimped on the driver's side inner far side air bag module (FSAB), which can cause the air bag to deploy improperly.
- What it can cause
- An air bag that deploys improperly may not protect the driver as intended during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will replace the driver's side inner FSAB, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 17, 2025. Owners may contact Polestar customer service at 1-800-806-2504. Polestar's number for this recall is RP1044.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles

How this campaign compares

It covers one model year, 2024, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2024, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 24 complaints with NHTSA, 3 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in December 2023, 1 year before this filing.

Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Polestar Automotive USA, Inc. with NHTSA on December 18, 2024 as campaign 24V939000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
