2000 Peugeot 406 GLX review from UK and Ireland
"Could have been class leader, but fails in some important (Safety) areas."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear suspension link broke. Replaced @ 43,000 miles.
Rear nearside electric window failed to operate and needed repair on three occasions.
Front brake disks have been replaced 10 times! Warped and causing brake shudder.
Rear nearside door lets in water in heavy rain.
General comments?
Comfy car.
Lots of room.
Shocking brakes.
Too many niggles and problems that should have been put right and not have them return. The brakes saga is disgraceful.
