Polestar Polestar 1 Lemon Law

Yes. The Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act applies to all new vehicles sold or leased in California regardless of production volume. Your Polestar 1 is entitled to the same protections as any mass-market vehicle if it has a substantial warranty defect that cannot be repaired.

Absolutely. Any defect that substantially impairs the use, value, or safety of the vehicle qualifies under Song-Beverly, regardless of which operating mode triggers it. A hybrid system that cannot reliably operate in electric mode fails to deliver a core function of the vehicle as designed and marketed.

Your rights under the Song-Beverly Act remain intact regardless of the manufacturer's business status. The parent company, which distributed the vehicle in California, would remain liable. An experienced Lemon Law attorney can help you identify and pursue the correct legal entity responsible for honoring your warranty rights.

The mileage offset is calculated by dividing the miles driven before your first repair attempt by 120,000 and then multiplying that fraction by the purchase price. This formula ensures you are only charged for the use you received before the defect first manifested, not for the total miles on the vehicle.
