Hazard
Vehicles fitted with a DV5R engine may experience a fuel leak. The non-conformity of the round shape on the cone of the common rail may cause the nut to loosen, resulting in the possibility of fuel leaking between the nut and the thread, leading to fuel vapours and fuel flow into the hot exhaust system. This may lead to a fire under the bonnet.

What is this? Some Citroën cars with a DV5R engine may leak fuel. A small part in the fuel line may come loose. This can let fuel drip near hot parts under the hood.

What's happening? Citroën has recalled certain models. The loose part could cause a fire if fuel touches hot parts. The company is fixing this for free.

Does this affect me? This affects Citroën Berlingo, C5 Aircross, and Jumpy cars in listed countries. Check if your car is on the recall list.

What should I do? Stop driving if you smell fuel or see a leak. Call a Citroën dealer right away. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel unwell from fumes.
