Are faults with the back brakes and Comms2000 unit normal for the Citroen Xsara Picasso Desire?

Since purchasing this vehicle from new we have had the back brakes changed as the adjusters were faulty and caused severe wear on the shoes. We have just had the Comms2000 unit changed. This was all done under warranty. Are these known faults with Citroen or with this model in particular? Are there any known faults that we should be aware of?
