8 recalls for 6 Fiat models in 2023
Fiat has eight recalls for six models in the EU Safety Gate (formerly Rapex) system for 2023. Fiat moved up in the overall ranking from fifteenth to thirteenth place compared to last year.
The most recalled Fiat model is the 500 in several versions with three recalls. The Doblo has been called into workshops twice. The oldest recalled Fiats are from 2020.
Safety Gate does not provide the numbers of potentially affected cars in its reports, so we always verify them from other sources. Since the beginning of 2023, we have also been monitoring the database of the German Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA, Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt), which publishes the numbers and also often includes Fiat recalls that Safety Gate does not record. Some of them can be found below.

Check also the Service Bulletin (TSB)
This summary is not intended to provide comprehensive information on all Fiat recalls in 2023. Only those that have been reported to the European Safety Gate alert system are listed. In addition to recalls, car manufacturers also carry out so-called service campaigns (Technical Service Bulletin – TSB), which are not reported anywhere and are only carried out on vehicles that arrive at an authorised workshop for servicing. We describe the difference between a recall and a service campaign in more detail in this article. This overview should prompt second-hand owners of older cars to contact an authorised workshop and ask if any recall or service campaign has been announced for a particular car. We advise how to do this here.
