What is this? A problem with some Citroën Berlingo vans. The extra heater may shut off too soon and leave fuel inside. This can cause smoke or leaks that may start a fire.

Does this affect me? If you own or drive a Citroën Berlingo van in France, Denmark, Hungary, Slovenia, or Slovakia, this could affect you.
What should I do? Take your van to a Citroën dealer right away. Ask your dealer or a mechanic to check the heater. Do not ignore any strange smells or smoke.
