Citroën C3 and DS3 models manufactured between 2009 and 2019 and equipped with Takata airbags urgently need these airbags replaced. Customers are urged to stop driving these vehicles immediately and contact their preferred dealership as soon as possible to schedule the free replacement. The service takes less than 2 hours to be performed.
Chemical components of Takata airbags can deteriorate over time, especially when exposed to hot and humid climatic conditions. In the event of a collision requiring the airbag to deploy, the airbag inflator may rupture with excessive force, potentially causing serious injury or even death. The replacement will return these Citroën C3 and DS3 models to original safety design specification.
Having the safety of its customers as the top priority, Citroën remains committed to actively contacting owners and custodians of these C3 and DS3 models manufactured between 2009 and 2019 to enable the repairs as quickly and conveniently as possible.
