Description
The Rear Tailgate Lock is an essential component for Citroën C3 Pluriel models, ensuring the secure and reliable closure of the vehicle’s rear hatch. This lock helps prevent unauthorized access and protects the cargo area from theft or accidental opening.
Over time, tailgate locks can wear out due to frequent use, exposure to weather elements, or mechanical failure, leading to difficulty in locking or unlocking the rear hatch. Replacing the lock restores the original functionality, improves security, and enhances vehicle safety.
Installation involves removing the interior tailgate trim to access the lock mechanism, disconnecting the old lock, and fitting the new unit. This process is generally straightforward for experienced mechanics or skilled DIY car owners with basic hand tools.
