Gowan Distributors Limited (Citroën Ireland) has announced a recall affecting multiple Citroën models due to identified safety concerns. One significant issue involves the brake pedal support in certain C3 Aircross and C3 models, where a missing or improperly assembled pin could lead to brake failure, making it impossible to stop the vehicle. This recall impacts 192 vehicles produced between June 10, 2025, and November 2, 2025.
Another recall involves Citroën Spacetourer and Jumpy models, where a diagnostic test may reveal emissions non-compliance due to urea consumption inefficiency. This affects 48 vehicles manufactured from July 11, 2022, to January 29, 2024. Additionally, certain C5 Aircross vehicles are recalled due to a malfunctioning Stop&Start function, which could increase CO2 emissions, affecting 548 vehicles produced between September 20, 2023, and April 30, 2025.
Citroën Aircross models are also being recalled due to faulty high-voltage batteries that could overheat and potentially catch fire. This recall affects 22 vehicles produced from January 20, 2020, to February 18, 2021. Furthermore, Spacetourer and Jumpy models are being recalled for a potential breakage of front suspension bolts due to corrosion, impacting 477 vehicles made between September 23, 2020, and June 30, 2022.
Lastly, there are stop-drive recalls for certain C4, C3, and C-Zero models due to dangerous airbag inflator issues that could lead to severe injuries.
