What can go wrong

It is necessary to exchange the two clevis pins on the brake pedal system to avoid any loss of braking. Peugeot have experienced a limited number of incidents where one of the pins has not been locked properly during fitting.

The fix

Recall the potentially affected vehicles and replace the two clevis pins on the brake pedal system.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
