30 January 2026

Transport Canada lists: VF 8 2023–2025

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the electronic parking pawl (EPP) to be released on its own. Additionally, the electronic parking brake (EPB) wiring harness could become damaged and/or corroded. If both issues happen at the same time, the vehicle could roll away when it's parked.

Why it matters

A parked vehicle that rolls away could create the risk of an injury or a crash.

What the dealer will do

To reduce the safety risk, VinFast recommends parking the vehicle on a flat surface until the recall repairs have been completed. VinFast will notify owners by email and advise you to take your vehicle to a VinFast authorized service center to update the vehicle software. The service center will also inspect and repair or replace the EPB wiring harness, as necessary.

Transport Canada recall 2025517 · manufacturer campaign VPAC-379

26 September 2025

Transport Canada lists: VF 8 2023–2025

What is wrong

Under certain conditions, the lane keeping assist (LKA) feature of the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) may not work properly. As a result, the steering wheel could move unexpectedly and/or the steering wheel movements may be difficult to override.

Why it matters

An advanced driver assistance system that doesn't work properly could increase the risk of a crash if the driver doesn't intervene.

What the dealer will do

VinFast reminds that LKA is only an ADAS feature, and that the driver must pay attention and be ready to take control at all times when the feature is engaged. VinFast will notify owners by email and advise you to take your vehicle to a VinFast authorized service center to update the ADAS software.
