Recently, many Dongfeng Citroen C4Sega owners reflected in the car quality network that Dongfeng C4Sega has problems such as steering system, large steering wheel sloshing gap and so on.

From the vehicle quality network related complaint data, the 2016 Sega steering system fault complaints reached 395, the 2018 Sega steering system fault complaints is 46.

Some car owners said: the steering wheel swings up and down, the internal axle sleeve is worn, and there is a gap. It is a common problem to see other Citroen C4Sega owners' feedback online, but when we go to the 4S store to consult, the conclusion is to change the steering column assembly. The price is about 1200 yuan. This is a common problem in this model. I hope that manufacturers will recall and replace the steering wheel bearing sleeve free of charge. There are also car owners said: since August this year, the steering wheel began to have some gaps, after more than a month more and more serious, now the shaking is very obvious, to the 4s store maintenance is that the steering column is broken. Some car owners even pointed out that when the vehicle is not started, the steering wheel will sway up and down, and the steering wheel will feel obvious sloshing clearance in the driving process, which seriously affects the accuracy of direction and driving safety.

It is understood that the steering column is a steering system that connects the steering wheel and the steering gear. Through the steering column, the driver transfers the torque to the steering gear, driving the steering gear to realize steering. The common steering columns are hydraulic power steering column, electronically controlled hydraulic power steering column and electric power steering column. Different steering columns have different systems.

At present, in response to the complaint information of car owners, Dongfeng Citroen manufacturers also replied online that we have known and attached great importance to the problems you reported, and have arranged for the relevant 4S stores to dock with you, and we will continue to pay attention to the follow-up results.

The C4L, owned by Dongfeng Citroen, was also reported by many car owners in 2017 that there were problems such as shaking the steering wheel and excessive free clearance. The models complained about mainly focused on 2013 and 2014 models. Subsequently, in response to complaints from car owners, Dongfeng Citroen also replaced the steering assembly for car owners free of charge.

At present, there are still many complaints about Dongfeng C4L steering wheel shaking and excessive free clearance on the vehicle quality network platform. There is a Citroen C4L owner posted that: their steering wheel for the second time such a problem, this time is to shake up and down, under normal circumstances, the steering wheel will not appear to sway up and down. The car had such a failure in 2017, when it claimed from 4S for free replacement, and this time, just three years after the replacement, there was such a failure again and again. There is also Dongfeng Citroen C4L owner said: the steering wheel free gap is too large, the car has a loud noise, always feel that there is a noise in the car.
