Each campaign in detail

  1. Déclenchement intempestif des airbags : rappel 2019

    Manufacturer recall

    Selon Fiches-auto, l'élément qui détecte la décélération peut indiquer à tort au calculateur de déployer les airbags. Le rappel de septembre 2019 concerne les véhicules fabriqués entre janvier et décembre 2015. Vérifiez par le numéro de série en concession.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).

  3. Montage des roues : risque de perte d'une roue, rappel 2017
