Citroen recalls 20,000 MPVs in the UK due to brake risks

Citroën, a French automaker, announced that it will recall 20,000 Citroen C3 Picasso MPVs in the UK market due to safety concerns in the vehicle's braking system. Earlier, the Watchdog (watchdog) program of the British media BBC had reported on the related problems of the C3 Picasso model.

Citroën Motors stated that the recall of the C3 Picasso MPV involved more than 20,000 vehicles. The reason is that there is a hidden danger in the installation of the brake cable at the foot of the passenger seat of the car. The passenger seat of the passenger seat may not be intentional. Start the brakes. Citroen will install brake isolators on the above models to eliminate hidden dangers.

According to the BBC Watchdog, the hidden danger was caused by the C3 Picasso's change from left-handed control to right-handed control to adapt to the British market, and problems occurred in the conversion process. The cable for changing the rear brake needs to be connected from the right-hand side to the left-hand side of the driver, and the surface of the brake wire is covered with only one layer of felt. The passenger seat occupant inadvertently stepping on it will trigger the brake.
