Berlingo

Citroën Berlingo passenger vans sold in Germany without a bulkhead may have a single seatback instead of the required double seatback. In a rear-end collision, this could allow excessive seatback movement, potentially throwing the driver out and causing injury. These vehicles do not meet required motor vehicle safety regulations.
