- Period mentioned

- Symptoms
- Poor roadworthiness-test results for steering joints, drive shafts, lights and brakes; a starter that fails more than normal on the petrols; on the 1.7 CRDi, isolated cases of a stretched chain; rust on the tailgate on some cars.
- Possible cause described
- The German guide rates the 1.7 CRDi as unproblematic; on the diesels typical wear (particulate filter, dual-mass flywheel, turbo, EGR, injectors) comes with high mileage or many short trips. Recalls: driver’s seat-belt pretensioner (built 10/2011–6/2012) and the brake booster on some 2011 1.7 diesels.
