What is this? A car maker found that some bolts on the back axle of certain Citroën C3 cars may not have been tightened properly.
What's happening? If those bolts come loose, the brakes may not work well. The car could lose control or even lose a wheel. This puts other drivers at risk.
Does this affect me? Owners of Citroën C3 cars in Germany or the Netherlands should check if their car is part of this issue.
What should I do? Take your car to a Citroën dealer right away. Ask your dealer to check and fix the bolts. Do not drive if you feel unsafe.
