Today my 1.3.1 media volume controls stopped working. The slider on the screen moves, but has no effect on the volume coming from the speakers. I also noticed home charging speeds drop from 7kW to approx 0.5kW. Not sure if this is a 1.3.1 bug or something else.

The traffic sign recognition issue has been there all along - it's not a 1.3.1 update issue - and apparently it also affects other Volvo models too running AAOS

seems you're right, I was just reading a reddit forum where drivers are complaining about sign recognition in their Polestar... guess the technology still needs to work out some bugs

I got my car on the 15. May, including 1.3.1 and I don’t have any of these issues. Only thing I have noticed, was that one specific radio station, changed to another, after around half a minute. Somehow, the problem is not there anymore. Everything works really well, so I am puzzled about all these issues, other owners seems to be having.

That's great that you haven't had any of these issues (other than the peculiar radio glitch). It is strange that only some owners have them. And some have a lot, some just a few and others have none, like yourself. I noticed the same thing while doing research for my MG4 videos. I suppose the inconsitencies may be one of the challenges in trying to fix things

I’ve had the same issue with the alarm going off randomly. In my case, it looks like this problem happens when the wireless key tag is kept within a certain range of the car. The issue stopped once I changed the place where I store my keys inside the house (far away from the car). I also have the problem where the autopilot configuration is lost after turning the car off. This happens with the lane-changing assistant and the distance to the car in front.

Maybe hiding the key/tag in a metal box with a lid. Those assistant issues are really unpleasant, I know that would drive me crazy.

Oh, I hope you don't have any other issues! Connectivity problems in a brand new car are more than enough,😄It's interesting that some 1.3.1 users don't have problems and others have many, I don't get it and seems lik it makes resolving any issues that much more difficult.🙄Well, fingers crossed your connectivity issues get sorted and nothing else comes up!

I ordered the Volvo EX30 Single motor, Extended range in July 2023, because of the Volvo brand, the good design and several overly enthusiastic product presentations. I canceled the contract after two test drives this year because the Volvo brand claims to be Premium but It’s not any more. In my opinion the whole thing is not ready, not reliable, not stable, a constant on and off. Although the car is in the market for some time now there are still too many flaws. I fear some of them are permanent at least for the first batch of cars. It is still 54 T€ for the Ultra trim of this car. Here’s a list of problems and issues from my point of view: • The car drives ok, but it is not above average in any other regard than the 200KW electric motor, that is certainly overpowered and not required. A lower power consumption (it is mostly above 20kWh/100km) would have been appreciated instead. • The Noise level on the highway is not Premium. The nice glass roof of the Ultra-Trim seems to have a negative effect. • Radio (DAB+) is really bad and braking is shutting it down. • No Apple Car Play and no Android Auto although at least the first was promised. • Smartphone Bluetooth connection not stable. • The door opening system is unreliable - you never know if the car opens or closes as you expect. • Unstable internet connectivity in the car although 4G/5G is available. • The Assistant systems are not ready - traffic sign recognition and driver alert are crap, lane assist and emergency braking systems can be dangerous because of massive impact on the steering and braking. • Inside material quality is also not Premium and the seats can get uncomfortable, sweaty in summer. • With the central display Volvo is following Tesla. But it is smaller and has a vertical orientation. Not too bad but compared to Tesla it is even more overloaded and has a non-logical, fragmented menu structure. No HUD and no display in front of the driver forces to look to the middle. As a consequence the car is constantly beeping and displaying small messages on the screen. At least nerve wracking, if not plain dangerously distracting.

wow, that's wild. You'd think someone from Volvo would have noticed these issues before going to market, this is truly ridiculous. The fact that there's no driver display or HUD is the reason I knew I wouldn't go for it, it does seem dangerous to me, though I've had other owners tell me it's fine. But the other issues you mention are really unacceptable in a brand new car. As I often ask myself these days, did anyone from Volvo bother to take the car for a spin? 🙄
