lawser Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Looking to buy a 2003/53 C5 from a non franchised dealer. My question is if anything should go wrong with the car or a recall is needed & with 9 months of the Citroen warranty left will i still be covered under Citroen ? Quote
Igloo_Vindaloo Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Should be - even if has been serviced by a non-main dealer (subject to certain terms I don't remember). But check it has less than 60,000 miles on it. Mine didn't, but the dealer kindly gave me a 12 month warranty from a 3rd party with it. I needed it for a new alternator less than 2 weeks later...

lawser Posted January 18, 2006 Author Posted January 18, 2006 Thanks i just wondered how i would stand regarding the warranty & Yeah the car only has 13,000 miles on the clock......You just never know ! Quote
Guest CE05LDB Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 The Terms of the warranty when having servicing done buy a non Citroen Dealer is that they must be VAT registed and use genuin Citroen parts only. Quote
hertsnminds Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I bought my Pluriel from a non franchised dealer when it was 6 months old and there was no problem with the Citroen warranty. In fact the warranty was the best thing about the car :angry: (well almost) Ian Black 55 VTR+ Quote
citroeneddie Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 Bet you needed that for the roof leaks, I gave up in the end. Quote
hertsnminds Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Roof leaks, broken seat trim and various other bits. The Pluriel was a great concept poorly executed. I got rid of mine before the warranty ran out and just after the whole roof cassette needed replacing due to it depositing buckets of water in the middle of the boot. IanBlack 55 VTR+ Quote
citroeneddie Posted April 22, 2006 Posted April 22, 2006 Ian Totally agree - great concept but a lot to go wrong. Quote
