Almost brand new, a Citroën ë-C3 found itself stuck on a roundabout. For its driver, it was impossible to restart.
Clearly, it seems that the Citroën ë-C3 was not born under the best auspices. Indeed, the problems are piling up for the one which nevertheless brings a long-awaited breath of fresh air to the electric market with its particularly low price which starts under €25,000.. Price over quality?
After having been postponed for several months for its arrival on the market, the electric city car with its chevrons is in fact plagued by numerous software bugs. We have heard about problems with the operation of the automatic windshield wipers, the display of the remaining autonomy, the unlocking system, etc. While waiting for a later update, we hope, for owners of the ë- C3. Especially if like this customer who just received his car in October, and it has already broken down… in the middle of a roundabout!
When will there be an update?
No, we’re not talking about this Tesla owner, apparently poorly informed about the procedures for updating his car, and who threw his at a red light. In the middle of the day. In the city of Sète. In the middle of summer. And which paralyzed traffic for 45 minutes. No, this new mishap is not to be blamed on the driver, but rather on the car. A Citroën ë-C3 so, you will have understood.
These are our colleagues from La Provence who report the incident that happened in the town of Pertuis to Aziz, a beneficiary of social leasing, and who has only had his car for a few weeks. After several hundred kilometers at the wheel, Thursday October 31 around 5 p.m., his car suddenly broke down. And it’s not a question of autonomy since there is 53% battery remaining. The problem is that she stopped just after entering a roundabout. That everything is gone. That he could no longer shift gears to D. And that it lasted 30 minutes before the car could be repaired. Isolated problem or real bug, when will there be an update?
