2004 Peugeot 407 review from Germany
"Not as good as it claims!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bad front wheel geometry.
Broken front wheel bearings.
Fire whilst driving in the city (battery and electric system).
The car starts only when it wants.
Brakes are not very strong for this size and type of a vehicle.
General comments?
I was expecting more from this car. It is very comfortable and very performant, but one year of troubles made me not to buy another French car.
Too many troubles in 20500 Km and one year.Disappointing.
