Dacia to Carry Out Service Operation on Dacia Logan Saloon Cars

January 17, 2008 -- Dacia is preparing to carry out a service operation which will allow their customers to take advantage of the latest technical improvements carried out in their plants. This service call only concerns models of Logan Saloon cars manufactured in Romania and Russia up until the end of 2006.

This operation (an additional injection of protective wax) is to allow customers to take advantage of technical breakthroughs free of charge, in order to improve their vehicles' protection, especially against climatic attacks.

As it is indicated in the vehicle maintenance log book and the 6-year anti-corrosion warranty, when the vehicles are next serviced, Dacia will also carry out an anti-corrosion inspection and will perform any necessary servicing. This is because Dacia, always concerned about the quality of their vehicles, has noticed in some cases the presence of oxidation in the back wheel arch of certain Logan Saloon cars manufactured in Romania and Russia.

This localized oxidation is caused by a water inlet in the back wheel arch, as a result of manual operations which were not correctly carried out during the manufacturing process (putty application and/or the positioning of a plug). The necessary corrective actions have been carried out in-plant, to ensure the best manufacturing quality, especially during putty application, an operation which requires dexterity.

These measures will be confirmed in writing to the customers concerned.
