Polestar assistance – if you need help on the road

With Polestar assistance you can count on help if the unexpected occurs.
PS2-2007-Polestar Assistance

Our goal is to enable you to continue your journey as soon as possible, by offering onsite roadside assistance. If we are unable to repair your vehicle onsite, we will arrange towing and your transport home or overnight accommodation.

Polestar assistance is included when buying a new car for three years1 from the date of first registration. When the coverage included with your vehicle expires, it will be possible to prolong it.

Polestar Assistance

You have access to Polestar assistance around the clock, 365 days a year in most countries in Europe.

Polestar assistance can offer assistance in the event of a breakdown, or when your car unexpectedly becomes immobilised. Polestar assistance is valid for immobilisation due to unexpected mechanical, technical or electrical breakdown, and not due to lack of maintenance.

The following events are also covered by Polestar assistance:
  • tyre problems: puncture
  • flat battery
  • key problems: locked out, lost or broken vehicle keys.

In the event of a puncture, you can use the accompanying repair kit in your Polestar for assistance.

If it is not possible to repair the car onsite, it will be towed to the nearest Polestar Authorised Service Point.

Polestar assistance is also valid in the event of a road traffic accident in which the vehicle is immobilised; attempted theft or vandalism where the vehicle is immobilised, if the vehicle is stolen, and fire.

Caravans or trailers towed by a covered Polestar vehicle are also covered. Horses or other livestock are not included in Polestar assistance, but we will assist in getting the horsebox and horse/livestock to a safe place whenever possible.

If the car cannot be repaired within four hours on the same day, you will be offered transport home or to your destination, hotel or a replacement car as per 1.3 in other terms and conditions for Polestar assistance.
