Buying a used 2025 Volvo EX40? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2025 EX40 has 3 recalls in this group: one concerning loss of brake function and two concerning a rearview camera image that may not appear in reverse. Brake recall completion is a central documentation check, alongside camera repairs. Its 2 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, listing steering, service brakes, power train, and electrical system at 1 each. These category counts are not separate complaint totals; the record reports 0 crashes, fires, or injuries.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Obtain VIN-specific brake function recall completion records.
- Verify both applicable camera recalls and check reverse image operation.
- Ask for steering, brake, power train, and electrical diagnostic records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Volvo dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
