Hi everyone, my 2017 Citroen c3 has adjustable steering so you can move the wheel in or out and up or down, I’ve noticed today that even know it’s locked in place there is a lot of give/movement with the wheel, doesn’t seem “locked” in place, anyone else came across this and is it easily fixed etc?

Hi

That doesn't sound right at all, to the point it could become dangerous. A lack of control of the steering.

I suggest it goes into a Citroen approved dealer for them to have a feel.

Thanks for the reply, it’s going into garage tomorrow to get checked out, the steering seems absolutely fine still, just the adjustable element of it isn’t locking completely, still best to be safe than sorry 😊
