Recalls: Citroen Mk.2 DS4
2011-15 Citroen DS4: bonnet may fly open
In January 2017, a recall was issued for Citroen B75 DS4 vehicles that were available for sale in Australia from 1 June 2011 to 31 July 2015. Due to corrosion, the striker wire on the bonnet support may release without warning. If this occurred, the bonnet may fly open and block the driver’s view of the road, increasing the risk of a collision. For the VINs of the recalled Citroen DS4 vehicles, please see PRA 2017/15843.
2011-15 model year Citroen DS4: Takata airbag recall
In August 2018, a recall was issued for 2011-15 model year Citroen DS4 vehicles. These vehicles were fitted with Takata airbags and, over time, the propellant wafers in these airbags could absorb moisture. In the event of a collision which activated the airbag, excessive internal pressure could cause the metal airbag inflator housing to explode such that metal fragments would be projected through the airbag and into the cabin. These metal fragments posed a serious risk of injury and fatality to vehicle occupants. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2018/16878.
