On the 2024-2025 Polestar Polestar 4, persistent Android Automotive bugs on 2024–2025 P4: built-in Google Maps GPS reports the car 100–200 m off-position, sometimes for 2+ hours of driving; one-pedal-drive setting resets itself randomly (and only re-enables in 'Low'); hill descent, lane keep, ESC and steering mode greyed out after update P4.2.11; Spotify blocked while driving; dashcam app non-functional; phone-as-key takes 20–60 s to unlock. Topspeed cited a Reddit thread with 600+ owners echoing the same.

Common Symptoms

  • Google Maps shows vehicle 100–200 m off actual position
  • One-pedal-drive disables itself mid-trip
  • ESC / hill descent / lane keep greyed out after OTA
  • Cruise control slams brakes to set speed instead of easing
  • Phone-key 20–60 s unlock delay
  • Driver seat memory does not recall positions

How to Fix

Keep the car on the latest OTA (P4.2.11+ as of 2025) but expect regressions; full sleep/wake cycle (lock and leave 30+ min) clears many bugs. Log each occurrence with Polestar Support and the dealer — service has acknowledged a 'major software release' is required, not customer-fixable. Use Apple CarPlay for navigation as a workaround for GPS drift.

Typical repair cost:$0 - $0
