Citroen passenger car: brake pedal support pin missing or poorly assembled, pedal may fall.

Country	European Union

Country of origin	France
Manufacturer	CITROEN
Models affected	C3 Aircross V3, C3 V5
Defect	The brake pedal support may not be attached securely enough due to a missing or poorly assembled pin. If the pin falls, the brake pedal could disengage, making it impossible to stop the vehicle. This may lead to injuries. If the brake pedal fails, the electronic parking brake on the centre console may be used while driving to slow the vehicle down to a controlled stop. Furthermore, when active, the automatic emergency braking system intervenes when it detects an imminent collision.
Remedy	Recall of the product from end users.
Recall number	SR/04252/25
