Citroen DS3 burning oil since timing belt recall work undertaken

Car: Citroen DS3
Variant: 1.2 Puretech
Model Year: 2019

Categories: Engine & Drivetrain

Had to get my timing belt replaced plus other problems due to it breaking 800 pound later and found out that in the Netherlands there are a bunch of cars getting recalled because of this and a lot of other people having problems.

If it's a recall covering your car , should be done under warranty and f.o.c .

Did you get a response from DS about this? I’m having the same issue with my 19 plate DS3 and the car broke down three days out of the warranty. Trying to contact DS and get booked into a DS garage has been a nightmare so would be great to hear if you had any success with claiming under warranty/if they covered it as goodwill? Have you also got a link to the Netherlands issues? Thanks!

My car has also done this. For others parts have been paid for but not labour. I am going to take this further. Did you have any luck?
