Components SEAT BELTS
Potential Number of Units Affected 2
Summary
Polestar Automotive USA, Inc. (Polestar) is recalling certain 2021 Polestar PS1 vehicles.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, “Occupant Crash Protection.”
Remedy
Dealers will inspect and replace the seat belt assemblies, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 22, 2021. Owners may contact Polestar customer service at 1-800-806-2504. Polestar’s number for this recall is R10112.

Polestar Authorized Service points are not expected to contact customers to inform of recall / Active service action either via letter or phone call. Customer will be contacted by Polestar Support.
Polestar Service Method
Inspection/ Control, Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR). Passenger Seat Belt.
Note! The front passenger seat must be in its rearmost and highest position and the height adjuster in its lowest position, such as the amount of belt getting retract inside the seatbelt retractor is at its maximum.
Step 1: Put the safety belt across the empty vehicle seat and insert the metal tongue of the belt into the buckle.
Step 2: Pull the safety belt all the way out of the retractor to activate the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR).
Step 3: Carefully let the safety belt retract fully into the retractor while the belt remains buckled, which simulates a restrained child seat. You will notice that when in ALR mode, there is a ratcheting/clicking noise from the retractor. This is normal.
Step 4: Grasp the torso portion of the safety belt and carefully pull on the belt in an attempt to pull the belt back out of the retractor. The belt should not pull out of the retractor.
Step 5: Unlatch the belt, and let it completely retract back into the retractor.
Step 6: Repeat steps 1 to 5, six times
Conclusion: Is the safety belt locked so that the strap cannot be pulled out of the retractor in step 4?
Yes: The ALR function works properly, and the safety belt assembly meets requirements
No: ALR does not work properly, the safety belt must be replaced according to the repair instructions in VIDA.
NEW VEHICLES IN RETAILER INVENTORY
It is a violation of federal law for a retailer to deliver any new Polestar that is eligible for a recall. Service Points are advised to check all vehicles in inventory for recall eligibility and repair immediately. Violation of this requirement by a Service Point could result in a civil penalty of up to $22,723 per vehicle.
Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.
USED VEHICLES IN INVENTORY
Polestar is ordering the stop-delivery of affected vehicles in auction and inventory until the recalled item can be repaired.
Stopping the delivery of affected used vehicles until the recall is complete is consistent with Polestar commitment to safety. Additionally, while Federal law does not prohibit the sale of used vehicles with open recalls, the sale of such cars could violate certain state laws and create liability on behalf of the service point.
What does this mean for customers?
Customers will not be able to take delivery of affected vehicles until the recall has been completed.
When will this be resolved?
Polestar on behalf of Polestar Performance AB, have decided to launch Recall R10112 on certain model year 2021 Polestar 1 vehicles.
Polestar investigations have identified that there may be a risk that certain seat belts with the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) have not been produced according to specifications and may result in early deactivation of locking feature used to tightly secure a child restraint system/seat.
The subject seat belt assemblies have a feature that converts the retractor from an emergency locking retractor (ELR) to an automatic locking retractor. The seat belts convert to the ALR mode after the webbing has been fully withdrawn from the retractor. The system is designed so that as the seat belt is released into the retractor, the ALR function remains active so a child restraint seat can be tightly secured. However, in certain seat belt assemblies the ALR function deactivates early before the webbing is fully retracted.
This noncompliance does not impact the compliance or functionality of the seat belt assemblies with respect to their normal use by adult passengers or use of the LATCH system to secure child restraint seats. This only affects the functionality of the right front seat belt when used to secure a child restraint seat using the seat belt.
With child restraint seats, which the vehicle owner elects to use the seat belt to secure the child restraint seat instead of the LATCH system, if the seat belt is not lockable, there is an increased risk of injury in a crash to the occupant of the child restraint seat.
To remedy the concerned vehicles, Polestar needs to inspect and perform a functionality test. If necessary, the affected seat belt will be replaced with a seatbelt assembly that contains ALR levers that were manufactured according to production specifications.
A total of two (2) U.S. vehicles are eligible for this recall. Vehicle eligibility must be confirmed:
- Vehicle Inquiry – Warranty Vehicle Inquiry where the message “Recall R10112 Polestar 1 Seat Belt Retractor” will appear for eligible vehicles, F4+History from the main Inquiry menu must be selected to confirm Recall R10112 has not been completed.
- Recall R10112 eligible vehicles not yet delivered to end customers must be corrected prior to delivery.
All vehicles must be checked for any incomplete recalls or service campaigns or service upgrades. All open Recall, Service Campaigns or Service Action repairs must be completed.
OWNER NOTIFICATION
An owner notification letter will be sent out that will notify the owner of this recall instructing them to contact their Polestar Service Point and request an appointment to have this repair completed.
PORT VEHICLES
NOT all eligible vehicles arriving from the ports will have this recall completed. Vehicle eligibility must be confirmed.
SERVICE POINT RESPONSIBILITIES
The Service Point must perform this recall campaign on eligible vehicles regardless of miles/kilometers or vehicle age. All work performed under this recall is free of charge to the owner. As the safety of our customers is our utmost priority, we are taking full responsibility to ensure the highest quality and safety standards for our cars.

Step 4: Grasp the torso portion of the safety belt and carefully pull on the belt in an attempt to pull the belt back out of the retractor. The belt should not pull out of the retractor. Step 5: Unlatch the belt, and let it completely retract back into the retractor. Step 6: Repeat steps 1 to 5, six times Conclusion: Is the safety belt locked so that the strap cannot be pulled out of the retractor in step 4? Yes: The ALR function works properly, and the safety belt assembly meets requirements No: ALR does not work properly, the safety belt must be replaced according to the repair instructions in VIDA.

Produced and printed in the USA and available as an electronic document. © Polestar 2021 Polestar Service and Parts Business Parts Bulletin TITLE: Recall R10112 Polestar 1 Seat belt Retractor Model Year: Polestar 1 2021 GROUP: 88 NO: R10112 CAR MARKET: United States REVISIONS: ISSUE DATE: 2021-09-29 STATUS DATE: 2021-09-29 Page 1 of 2 Reference Bulletins: QB R10112 Polestar on behalf of Polestar Performance AB, have decided to launch Recall R10112 on certain model year 2021 Polestar 1 vehicles. Only two VINS are affected by Recall R10112. Volvo Cars investigations have identified that there may be a risk that certain seat belts with the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) have not been produced according to specifications and may result in early deactivation of the locking feature used to tightly secure a child restraint system/seat. The subject seat belt assemblies have a feature that converts the retractor from an emergency locking retractor (ELR) to an automatic locking retractor. The seat belts convert to the ALR mode after the webbing has been fully withdrawn from the retractor. The system is designed so that as the seat belt is released into the retractor, the ALR function remains active so a child restraint seat can be tightly secured. However, in certain seat belt assemblies the ALR function deactivates early before the webbing is fully retracted. This noncompliance does not impact the compliance or functionality of the seat belt assemblies with respect to their normal use by adult passengers or use of the LATCH system to secure child restraint seats. While using child restraint seats, which the vehicle owner elects to use the seat belt to secure the child restraint seat instead of the LATCH system, if the seat belt is not lockable, there is an increased risk of injury in a crash to the occupant of the child restraint seat. The corrective action is to inspect and perform a functionality test. If necessary, the affected seat belts will be replaced with a seat belt assembly that contains ALR levers that were manufactured according to production specifications.

STEVE DeGRAZIO – HEAD OF CUSTOMER SERVICE & QUALITY, NORTH AMERICA September 1, 2021 Subject: Recall R10112 TO: All U.S. Service Points NEW VEHICLES IN RETAILER INVENTORY It is a violation of federal law for a retailer to deliver any new Polestar that is eligible for a recall. Service Points are advised to check all vehicles in inventory for recall eligibility and repair immediately. Violation of this requirement by a Service Point could result in a civil penalty of up to $22,723 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery. USED VEHICLES IN INVENTORY Polestar is ordering the stop-delivery of affected vehicles in auction and inventory until the recalled item can be repaired. Stopping the delivery of affected used vehicles until the recall is complete is consistent with Polestar commitment to safety. Additionally, while Federal law does not prohibit the sale of used vehicles with open recalls, the sale of such cars could violate certain state laws and create liability on behalf of the service point. What does this mean for customers? Customers will not be able to take delivery of affected vehicles until the recall has been completed. When will this be resolved? Polestar on behalf of Polestar Performance AB, have decided to launch Recall R10112 on certain model year 2021 Polestar 1 vehicles. Polestar investigations have identified that there may be a risk that certain seat belts with the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) have not been produced according to specifications and may result in early deactivation of locking feature used to tightly secure a child restraint system/seat. The subject seat belt assemblies have a feature that converts the retractor from an emergency locking retractor (ELR) to an automatic locking retractor. The seat belts convert to the ALR mode after the webbing has been fully withdrawn from the retractor. The system is designed so that as the seat belt is released into the retractor, the ALR function remains active so a child restraint seat can be tightly secured. However, in certain seat belt assemblies the ALR function deactivates early before the webbing is fully retracted. This noncompliance does not impact the compliance or functionality of the seat belt assemblies with respect to their normal use by adult passengers or use of the LATCH system to secure child restraint seats.

With child restraint seats, which the vehicle owner elects to use the seat belt to secure the child restraint seat instead of the LATCH system, if the seat belt is not lockable, there is an increased risk of injury in a crash to the occupant of the child restraint seat. Polestar Automotive USA Inc. 777 MacArthur Blvd Page 1 of 2 Mahwah, NJ 07430 Telephone +1-201-981-7066 To remedy the concerned vehicles, Polestar needs to inspect and perform a functionality test.
