Miller Shah LLP is actively investigating serious Volvo C40 safety issues in 2024 and 2025 models, including reports of defective digital displays and sudden rear braking. The firm is drawing on its history of successful automotive defect cases to review potential claims for owners and lessees.
The 2024 and 2025 models of the Volvo C40 are reported to have serious safety issues that put drivers and passengers at risk. Drivers have reported that the digital display shuts off while driving. This display, also known as the information panel, shows critical information and alerts about the vehicle and surrounding areas. Critical information related to engine and tire status, speedometer numbers, and fuel quantity are not available when a malfunction occurs. Navigation maps and lane assist functions that many drivers rely on to safely reach their destination are also unavailable during a malfunction.
Users have also reported issues with the automatic intervention rear braking systems. The vehicle’s rear brake engages without warning and without any obstacle behind the car, causing sudden and forceful stops. Both of these issues could potentially result in driver or passenger injury.
Drivers rely on digital displays for an abundance of information. Every tool or feature in a car has been crafted to ensure that vehicle occupants can get from destination to destination safely. The digital display is no different. It allows drivers to access information, so that they can make the most informed decisions at any crucial moment. An unexpected moment where a driver may need critical information, but lacks access due to malfunction can put drivers, passengers, and others on the road at risk of accidents. An issue with the digital display can disorient a driver and distract drivers from the road by focusing their attention on fixing the malfunction.
An intervention rear braking system can prevent accidents and injuries when working properly. Its purpose is to help vehicles avoid crashes while reversing into spaces behind the car that drivers cannot typically see. The system uses sensors to detect when a vehicle is close to crashing into another vehicle or pedestrian and automatically applies the brakes if the driver has not. Recently there have been reports that the 2024 and 2025 Volvo C40 rear brakes engage even in moments where there is nothing behind the vehicle. When the rear brake malfunctions, it can cause unnecessary forceful stops that can throw occupants against seatbelts and headrests causing injuries and lifelong pain.
Every owner and lessee of the Volvo C40 should be able to trust that the safety features will work as intended. If left unaddressed, both of these problems could cause serious accidents. To prevent injuries and accidents, Miller Shah is currently investigating and searching for plaintiffs that have experienced these defects.
A vehicle is one of the most expensive purchases that many individuals make during their lifetime. Vehicles are supposed to provide safe and reliable transportation for us and our families, but unfortunately many drivers of the 2024 and 2025 Volvo C40 have experienced crucial safety defects. When critical features malfunction, it raises concerns about product defects and potential liability. Both issues may support legal claims related to product defects and design flaws, failure to warn consumers about defects, or potential recall obligations under the law. Reporting Volvo C40 safety issues that you may have encountered can help prevent yourself and others from dangerous situations.
