Citroen Recall

I have had to take my car for the airbag repair to a garage in Macclesfield, I was told I could not drive the car and the garage had no pickup trucks available. I hired a truck to take me to Macclesfield from Denton, Manchester this morning at a cost of £100. How do I claim my money back.

    Did you make the garage aware of this before hiring the vehicle?

    You would need to speak to Citroen. But don't hold your breath. 
    This is effecting thousands of cars (see motoring section)

    I was told by Vertu Gatehead that Citroen were paying £50 plus £1 per mile towards the cost. When I spoke to Citroen they told me I could not drive the car and they would organise a pick up, but surprise surprise I have not heard from them. I also sent them an email but have still not had a reply. When I go back to pick up my car this afternoon I will ask the garage if they have any details of who to get in touch with.
