• German TÜV data show oil loss on the second-generation V40 about five times more often than the inspection average; it is the model's best-known weakness.2012–2019
• In the same owners' poll, nine voters confirm a cracked engine block on the 2.0 D4 Drive-E of 2014-2016 (five say they have not had it), and five confirm peeling paint on 2012-2015 D3 cars.2012–2016
• ADAC breakdown data for the second generation flag injectors on 2012 cars and batteries on 2012 and 2014 cars, while cars from 2015 on are consistently good.2012–2019
• Visibility is the lowest-scored area among owners of the second generation, and a German used-car check calls the boot modest and says the rear seat gives way to looks.2012–2019
