Citroen owners left stranded over airbag safety risk

  • Stellantis issued a stop-drive recall in June 2025 for about 120,000 UK Citroen C3 and DS3 cars due to a lethal fault in Takata airbags.
  • The recall follows a fatal June 11 crash in France where a woman was killed by flying metal from her faulty 2014 Citroen C3's airbag.
  • Takata airbags produced from 2009 to 2016 in these models, amid the world's largest recall involving over 100 million cars, pose a severe explosion risk.
  • Stellantis acknowledged repairs will cause short-term inconvenience, has mobilised its full network to source replacement airbags, and is exploring home repairs.
  • Owners, including 69-year-old Lisa Shackleton who needs her car for medical trips, face lengthy waits for fixes with no compensation plans announced by Stellantis.
