2017-20 Citroën C3 Aircross: ageing oil could affect timing belt and brake vacuum pump
In May 2023, recall campaign HLX was issued for 2017-20 Citroën C3 Aircross vehicles. In these vehicles, ageing of the engine oil could cause material to detach from the timing belt and this could affect operation of the brake vacuum pump. If left unrepaired, this condition may result in a reduction or loss of braking performance – this could increase the risk of a collision and injury to vehicle occupants and/or other road users. To fix, a software update was to be applied which improved the vacuum diagnosis to provide an earlier warning about the risk of loss or reduction of braking assistance. Furthermore, the timing belt would be checked and, if needed, replaced with other components of the braking assistance system and the vacuum pump. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see REC-005687.
