If a Fearless unit is being transported in a vehicle which is destroyed due to hackdowns from the assault resolution roll (or staying withing 15cm of enemy units after the Withdrawal moves), what happens to the transported Fearless units?

Destroyed?
Forced to make a Save or be destroyed?
Nothing they are just placed on the spot of their destroyed transport vehicle?

They'd get their armor save or a 6+ cover save.

Agreed Dave. While Fearless units do not suffer hackdown hits, they are not imune to the effects of the vehicle being destroyed around them.

However this would be a very unusual situation, because the fearless infantry would normally dismount to take part in the assault (irrespective of whether they were the attackers or defenders).

Unless they got stuck in the transport by the assaulting formation.

This, and this.

I like to think of it as the fearless units having to make a save to survive jumping off a vehicle that's driving at top speed away from the battle.
