Peugeot Partner: Front Suspension Spring May Break

Recalling firm
PEUGEOT
Product
Vehicles: PEUGEOT PARTNER. Units affected: 32,396
Reason
In countries where salt is used extensively on the roads the paint sub layer on certain springs produced over a specific manufacturing period shows very little resistance to corrosion. This can in exceptional circumstances cause a front suspension spring to break with the attendant risk that the spring could contact the tyre. Remedy: To prevent an occurrence of this type likely to be affected vehicles will be recalled at which time a suspension cup will be fitted on each front side of the vehicle to prevent a failed spring from making contact with the tyre.
