Citroen e-C3 gets delayed by software bugs, Peugeot e-3008 by powertrain issues
- Jamiefly
Grrrr.. plagued with software and electrical issues, it finally gave up the ghost outside and MoT station..I kid you not..
200k miles and 14 different faults ranging from traction control failure to "apply handbrake" whilst driving at 20mph.. rear view cameras coming on whilst driving forwards at 30mph but the drive control saying I'm in reverse.. charging is hit or miss and generally only lets me charge at home using smart charging after 2330hts using an Ohme charger and octopus ( not using the Citroen app as it won't update) the infotainment crashes all the time powering down when using android auto...
Ooh and the regeneration braking doesn't work until the battery is lower than 95% driving with a full battery feels like you're using cruise control as the car doesn't slow down until you apply the brakes... Not 😃 great
My overall thought is the electronics are beyond the manufacturer...

My eC3 was ordered by the dealer in June 2024, and delivery was expected in November. Before Christmas I was told it was on its way to the dealer. Told last week that all deliveries have been suspended due to a software problem.
Told this week that the problem will be cured by a dealer fix during the PDI, and deliveries have restarted.
I am getting cold feet about this car and hope that it isn’t going to need constant updates as with my previous VW id3.
