27 recalls for 13 Peugeot models in 2023
Peugeot has 27 recalls for 13 models in the EU Safety Gate (formerly Rapex) system for 2023. As in the previous year, this is the second highest number of all carmakers.
Peugeot’s most recalled model is the 208, a small hatchback with nine recalls. Only one fewer in 2023 had the Peugeot 308, 3008 and Peugeot 508. The Peugeot Partner was recalled five times. The oldest recalled Peugeots are from 2014.
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 Peugeot 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 Peugeot 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.
