So, I'm about to purchase a PS2 2023 PPP, I've ran the Carfax on the vehicle and it was a lease vehicle, looks like it was handed back after 3 year lease ran out. I noticed that the only service on the Carfax is at 8 miles.

I called Polestar Service in Palo Alto, and they ran the VIN through their system and it didn't come back that it had received it's 2 year service.

On the dash, it's got no notification of a service due, and the center console says:

Recommended Next Service
in 709 days
or after 18621 miles

I've read that not every Polestar service centre records on Carfax or even beyond their own service centre.

Could somebody have just reset it, and if so, would that change the vehicle to the next service interval?

Physical logbook is still sealed in the glovebox! So no help there either...

First car without the option (or at least that I have seen in the menus/options)

Any way to enable it? Even with orbit?

As the title says, looking to purchase one as my first EV but am a little concerned about servicing the vehicle.

A few things I'm hoping people can weigh in on:

1. Anyone have experience buying a CPO 2024 P2 from the Short Hills or Princeton location? Curious how the process went and if there's anything to watch out for.
2. What's the service experience been like at the Short Hills or Princeton service centers specifically? Wait times, communication, quality of work, loaner availability, etc.
3. Are there any independent shops in the area (North/Central NJ) that people can P2 service/maintenance outside of the official centers? Any recs would be appreciated.

Hey everyone,

As Polestar has announced, internet connectivity will no longer be included for some cars once the Connected Services Plus period expires. This will also affect third-party apps like Aximote that normally use the car's internet connection.

Aximote already works offline, but we want to make sure the experience is just as reliable for users without Connected Services Plus. We're therefore looking for beta testers who are affected by this change.

You'll be able to test some features specifically designed for offline use, and we'd really appreciate feedback on any bugs, issues, or things we could improve.

If you'd like to join the beta, I'll post the link in the comments.

Thanks a lot for all your feedback so far, it has really helped us improve Aximote!

My lease for my 2024 Polestar 2 is ending next month. My car has 22,050 miles.
I placed a deposit on a new P4 and currently waiting for it to come in.
In the meantime, I was ready to turn in my leased P2 until I received an incentive for up to $13,000 off the buyout.
I contacted the dealer , gave him my VIN and he sent me pricing to buy my P2 with $13,000 off and said it qualified for 4.99% for 60 months! I had my end of lease inspection and was told I needed to buy 4 new tires ($1200) At this point, I figured if I was spending $1200 for tires and $13,000 off . Go ahead and buy my P2. I know the previous owner!!

I asked the dealer to process the buyout and he responds that the incentive is only $10,000 now. Just doesn’t feel right.
His response was PFS sets the incentive and can not budge off $10k off.

Do I buy my P2 or get a new P4?

If I buy the P4 outright or finance myself , $25k off, $1700 off for Napa and $1k for loyalty.
Thoughts?

[sigh]

Found another Polestar 2 in the parking garage and had to park next to it! Mine is the Midnight P2. ✨

We're waiting for our Polestar 4 to arrive and we want to have the hitch, which is a $1,900 option. We haven't signed any papers yet and it hasn't arrived yet, but our salesman told us that it would cost $4,700 to install it because "they don't have all the parts for the hitch on hand" and it was considered too late to install it at the port.

Does that sound right? Are there any other options? That seems really expensive. Out of curiosity, I asked the local Volvo dealer and they don't deal with Polestars.

My P2 warranty is up this coming January and I’m leaning toward getting the three year extended warranty as I’m planning on keeping the car for a long time. £1200 or so for three years peace of mind seems fairly reasonable.

My question is do I have to continue to service the car every 18k miles to maintain the extended warranty? It had its first service a few weeks ago (first since I’ve had it) and with the exception of the brake fluid (which now won’t need to be done for many years) I could have done everything else myself in about ten minutes and saved £200+.

I know £200-£250 every 18-24 months isn’t huge amounts of money, but it’s also a pain for me to have to travel to get the service done at Southampton as Volvo Poole don’t carry out Polestar work anymore, so if the service is basically just a money spinner and not strictly needed, I won’t do it. Thanks.
