Renault Twingo: Door Security Concern
Renault is recalling 2,890 Twingo and Kangoo vehicles sold in the United Kingdom because the front and side door locks may not secure properly due to a manufacturing defect where the locking bolts weren't heat-treated as they should have been. The doors could become unsecured over time as the bolts wear. Renault will fix this by replacing both the front and side door locks.
