The vehicle was charging from 11% of charge from a DC fasts charging station. The car was locked and charging. When I came back out to the car, I noticed it had stopped charging at 76%. I then tried to start the charge again and the car just showed an error. I then tried the 3 other available chargers (1 of the 4 was in use by another car), and the car did not charge at any of them—showing that same error message. When I proceeded to try to drive the car this time, I received an error message on the dash stating: "Propulsion system Service required". The car would not shift into drive after this message showed up. After some time (around an hour if not less), the car did let me shift into drive and it moved, but the error still showed in the car's status page.

When at red light or stop sign intermittently the vehicle lunges forward on its own 1-3 feet. without the brake or go pedal pressed. Vehicle is driven in OPD creep mode off. Lunges almost like if you popped the clutch on a manual transmission car. I always leave space behind the car in front of me so have not had a crash. However I would be afraid of it doing it with someone walking close in a crosswalk. Vehicle was taken to Polestar service today after it happened to my wife this morning. I see other people in various groups having the same issue with this vehicle and no longer feel it is safe to drive. No warning lamps or messages.

We were driving our car with two little kids in it on a rainy day at 60mph and the car screeching braked to 5mph on a highway with a ‘propulsion system failure’ message. The car would knock at 5mph and continue in turtle mode. We could have been killed if there was a car behind us in that rain. When we took the car to polestar service (prestige Volvo) they did a software upgrade in 30 mins and said the car is ready. A day later the car gave other issues like blanking screens. I took the case with polestar corporate who were extremely rude in their behavior and gave me a loaner and sent the car back to service. 2 days later they said that the car is repaired and I can pick it up. When I asked them to give me a letter stating that the car is...

Occasionally while operating my Polestar 2, the TCAM module becomes unresponsive. Sometime it happens when I first turn it on and it is initially establishing communication, other times it's happened when driving under a steel bridge or overpass that temporarily blocks view of the sky. Particularly troublesome while navigating tricky interchanges where you actually need the guidance. Pressing and holding the 'home' button on the head unit for ~15 seconds until the whole car's infotainment/speedometer/etc. system does a hard restart has been enough to resolve for me each time it's happened (4x now). Additionally - and unsure if related or not? - I have received two phantom errors. One stating "Propulsion System. Service Required." After confirming online that this was a not uncommon issue, I proceeded to drive it anyway and it disappeared after 2 minutes and has not returned. The other error was a "low tire pressure" error when...

This vehicle is less that one month old. I received an alert multiple times in my instrument cluster: Propulsion System Service Required. The vehicle was able to still operate seemingly normally. I contacted Polestar and they suggested a software reboot to attempt to resolve the issue, which did temporarily make the alert disappear. However, the following day the same alert returned. I am currently awaiting service.
