Landy Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 I have had my C4 VTS for a year now, I was told it was top of the range, I love the car but the problems I have had are now driving me literally mad!Faults so far, Suspension recall, needed to replace Rear view mirror, door handles (kept swinging open when I was driving), Boot wouldnt open CD player broke washers didn't work Scratches to bumper on delivery, needed respraying twice, part of under carriage came down and was dragging along ground, now I'm having a real problems with the air conditioning unit, already been replaced once going in this week again with air con faults. Obviously all these faults have been over the last year, worked out I've been back to dealership 14 times now! I have just written a letter to the manager to see what they are willing to do, got no confidence in car anymore- has anyone else had this much trouble?Fed up!Landy Quote
wozza Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 OUCH! Seems everything that can go wrong has with you mate. Recalls are a thing you have to put up with on new cars and the C4's honestly are not that bad. Hey at least its not an A class Merc that liked to flip over until they were recalled to have that issue rectified. But suspension recall? Thats a new one non of us have had a recall on our suspension, Airbags, Brakes, ABS block. And i think thats it. The doors flying open im guessing were due to the door handles on the outside sticking open? Was a known issue with a fix out a long time ago now. CD player dunno about dont have the stock system or cd changer in my car. Air conditioning is the latest one though we have heard issues about apparently theres a whole new unit out now. Just hpoing im not gonna have to get mine replaced anytime soon now. Other fix out is if you have squeaky rear brakes that can be sorted. But to be honest my cars had a few minor niggles but nothing major go wrong. Same with all marques though some cars just go wrong from new. Know people with brand new golfs that have had bits literally fall off them and thats supposed to be well built. Quote
bigrob Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 Wozza what is the fix on the door handles? - my passenger door (3 door VTR) handle sticks out sometimes & so you can't shut the door until you push it back in. Is it take it back to the dealer again? Quote

Is it take it back to the dealer again? My passenger handle kept getting stuck out. Dealer fixed it with no fuss. Quote
wozza Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 Yeah just take it back to the dealer they should be able to sort it. Quote

Mike5483 Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 I think the fix is 'Squirt liberally with WD40'... Quote
Stuey Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 Citroens highly trained technicians can 'Squirt liberally with WD40' if you please... Quote
