I heard this story from a friend, it is not official because if it is true, Vin has surely censored as much as it can. No main stream media of course so don't ask for it. But there are a lot of details.

The story:

On 01/08/2024, around noon, a director of a company who newly bought a VF9 was killed by the car auto run in reverse parking when he was going to the back of the car to get smt. He was the only one with the car, no foul play by some other inside the car.

The place where this happened is B2 basement, Handico Tower, Metri, Hanoi.

The director bought the VF9 for just 2 weeks. He put the car in reverse parking, probably not turning off the car, but then went to the back to get stuff. Then the car went backward killing him in the basement. He was discovered about 2 hours later. Dead.

If it is true, might be the reverse parking was stuck (by faulty software / hardware, or smt on the ground) and stop, so he got out, to check or to get stuff, and then it suddenly run again, or what ever the reason, but it run fast enough to suffocate the guy, sandwiching him between the car and the wall, may be not hard to dismember him but suffocate, the guy got hit and pass out. I don't know the detail nor have the footage. Just a guess of how a reverse parking can kill. It it did kill him by sandwiching him.

If true, this raises a huge question about the safety of Vinfast cars. The collision avoidance did not work. Software safety sequence is missing.

Letting a car auto run in reverse without human at the wheel killing a guy at the back is the fault of the manufacturer, period.

No matter how wrong doing the guy might be.

Of course, this story will never see the light under Vin heavy censorship but here we have a place for the truth, or at least for questioning and discussion.

I presented all the info I get, I have no way to confirm, and I asked if this is true if some redditors happen to be a friend of the guy.

I have few sources who said they are friends with the director and with his relative confirm the accident. The funeral was also held already.

There is no picture, don't ask. The building wants to conceal it. Vin wants to conceal it. There is no official news of course.

They processed the car in the basement and took the guy away as quickly as possible. It is in the basement of a building so fews would know. It is an office building so even some other companies there did not know, but some there would know.

Any news on this in Vietnam will likely be taken down immeditately by Vin and Vuong Pham's associates because it is too damning ! Do not ask for link! Follow this post for updates.

I will try to investigate more.

To Vinfans: do not use foul language or personal attack. I am just reporting as it is.

Again the story here is that if it is true, Vin hides and conceals the issues with complete media blackout, and this is a safety issue, it might happen to others.
