PEUGEOT announced a problem with the NEW BOXER affecting a total of 8,781 vehicles.
It has become necessary to check the front brake hoses and improve their protection. In extreme cases, wear on the hose caused by chafing against the wheel arch could cause a brake fluid leak. The presence of which would initially illuminate the red warning lamp on the dashboard. Vehicles built from 12/12/2003 to 08/31/2004 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Recall likely to be affected vehicles and check the condition of the front brake hoses. If found to suffering a chafe situation the hoses will be changed. If not, the hoses will be checked for orientation, and fitted with an additional protective device.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest PEUGEOT dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
