What is this? Some Citroën cars may have a small space problem near the engine. A tube and a part called the 48 V starter can touch too closely.
What's happening? In wet weather, water or dirt could cause a fire risk where they almost touch. This is a serious safety issue.
Does this affect me? If you own or drive a Citroën C3 Aircross V3, C3 V5, C4 V3, or C4X in France, Germany, Croatia, Hungary, Ireland, Luxembourg, Sweden, Slovenia, or Slovakia, this could affect you.
What should I do? Take your car to a Citroën dealer right away. Do not wait. Ask your dealer or a mechanic for help.
