Hi,
I purchased a new 2003 model 206cc, and since this time have had nothing but trouble with this vehicle. Within days of collecting the vehicle the tyre blew up steering me into a gutter requiring me to buy a new tyre and rim. Days later the electronics on the car began to fail. So far I have had the horn go off of its own accord, the blinker and hazards lights intermittently go off, a constant air bag fault registering, service light flash all the time as well as the stop led display, the car has "switched off" when I have been driving on the motorway, often have trouble starting the car, the air conditioner has not worked for over one and a half years and recently, the fan under the bonnet exploded causing other damage. My little car has been in service over 10 times in two years (a far cry away from the one service every 20,000km I was told when I purchased the vehicle), not to mention two recalls. I seem to have more problems popping up with the car after each service and especially after the recalls. In the last two months my car has been in for service no less than four times These are just a "few" of the problems I have had with this car.
I was wondering if anyone else has had these problems??? and how their situation was resolved??? The dealer will not take responsibility for the car and neither will Peugeot Australia - they both say the blame lies with the other.
I have not felt safe driving this car for an extremely long time and fear it poses a risk to not only myself and my passenger/s but also the general public (there have been too many near misses after electrical faults causing the car to stop).
If needed I will proceed with legal action as I have had enough. Is there anyone out there who has had a similar situation?????
Please help!
