I think you should examine how CARP works on your routers and how it works
in pfsense.

In pre 2.0 version, PFsense CARP has a (fixed) different zone for each
interface, so if an interface goes down it switches only that interface, and
traffic bind to that interface becomes unreachable.
It is useful only if a machine goes down, not if an interface goes down.

If you actually switch all interfaces when one goes down, you can't do on
pfsense.
That's not true and never been true, the behavior of all versions is
to switch over all CARP IPs if any NIC on the primary can no longer
communicate with the secondary. You have something wrong on your
setup, or have intentionally disabled that via a manual hack, if
that's what yours does.

We did several checks before putting it in production.
PFsense 1.2.3, no hack, ony web setup.
Setup forced to give a different vhid to each VIP, and we saw vhid are completely indipendent.

We will check it again as we dismiss it.

Tonino
