Volvo recalls its two SUVs, the XC60 and XC90, back to dealerships. A possible turbocharger failure could lead to loss of power and oil leaks. In the worst case, engine parts could be damaged. Worldwide, the recall affects 9,864 vehicles built between May and August 2020.
Dacia recalled the new Sandero a week ago, and this week the Logan appears on the list. Due to a specific software update error that can cause a short reset, the Data Communication Module (DCM) may become damaged. As a result, it will no longer be possible to initiate an emergency call using the eCall system with the nearly 5,000 Logans built at the Pitesti factory between 11 March 2021 and 11 May 2021.
Citroen is searching for 19 C4 model vehicles on which the wheel hubs may not have been tightened sufficiently at the production line. This may cause a wheel to detach from the rear suspension crossbar and lose control over the vehicle, increasing the risk of an accident. The vehicles in question were manufactured between October 2020 and April 2021.
