I've been wanting to get rid of my 3008 for some time now (see the problems in previous posts inc head unit bricking etc), but due to lockdown the car has spent the last year on the driveway so I've not been able to look for a replacement.
Anyway, I receive a letter from Peugeot saying there's a safety recall (JZR) and I need to take the car to my local dealership to have the software updated.
I call our local dealership and take the car in - they have it all day and then tell me their "systems are down" so they couldn't do the update. But I can take it to another dealership some miles away and they can do it instead.
So, I arrange this and have to wait a while for a date as I need a courtesy car. When I take it in they have the car for a full day and when I go to collect it 8 hours later… they haven't done anything… because… "our systems can't connect to your car's software".
They said they'll get back to me as and when IT support get back to them with a solution. I'm not holding my breath.
Considering I absolutely hate the car (I love the looks and finish, but the tech sucks) I feel like pushing it over a cliff!
Has anyone else had issues where Peugeot's systems are unable to communicate with their car when updating the software?
