2016 Sega

A total of 710301 Dongfeng Citroen Sega hatchbacks and sedans were produced between March 5, 2008 and September 29, 2016.

Reason of the recall

There is a risk of fracture of the front suspension spring, and more than 710,000 domestic Citroen Sega have been recalled

For vehicles covered by this recall, the spring coating was damaged due to long-term friction between the front suspension spring and the sand and gravel accumulated on the shock absorber tray; After the coating is damaged, the spring rusts under the erosion of high salt and high humidity environment, and may break under the influence of tensile and compressive stress for a long time. In extreme cases, the broken spring slips under the shock absorber tray, causing tire damage, affecting the normal driving of the vehicle, and posing a safety hazard.

Solution

The recall was carried out in the context of a defect investigation initiated by the State Administration for Market Regulation. Affected by the investigation, DPCA will protect the front suspension spring bottom ring of the vehicles within the scope of the recall, and if the front suspension spring has been broken, replace the new spring and protect the spring bottom ring to eliminate potential safety hazards.
