If you own an electric vehicle from Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, or Škoda, you may have been impacted by a serious data breach that exposed sensitive personal and vehicle information. KP Law is currently supporting affected individuals through a no-win, no-fee group action claim.
What Happened?
In 2024, cyber security researchers uncovered a major data breach affecting around 800,000 electric vehicle (EV) owners worldwide, including thousands in the UK. The breach stemmed from a misconfigured cloud system managed by Cariad, Volkswagen’s software arm, which left critical user data accessible to the public for months. The issue was brought to light by the Chaos Computer Club, a renowned European hacker group.
Who Is Affected?
If you own one of the following EV models, your data may have been compromised:
- Volkswagen: ID.3 and ID.4
- Audi: Q4 e-tron and e-tron GT
- SEAT: Mii Electric
- Škoda: Enyaq iV
The exposed data could include personal details and potentially sensitive vehicle information, raising serious concerns over privacy and security.
