6 recalls for 5 Dacia models in 2019
In 2019, Dacia announced six recalls involving five models through the EU Rapex system. The Logan (5) and Sandero (4) were the most recalled models.
We’ve sorted all 2019 recalls according to the model into a table below.
An incorrectly welded exhaust catalytic converter may have the Logan, Logan MCV, Sandero, Dokker and Lodgy models manufactured in March and April 2018. Another smaller-scale Dacia recalls for several models (Duster, Logan, Logan MCV, Sandero) was announced due to an incorrectly welded positive terminal of the 12-volt battery with vehicles manufactured in mid-June 2018.
In 2019, Dacia also recalled twice for a defect in the driver’s airbag. Possible loss of vehicle control due to an insufficient tightening torque of the lower steering column fixing bracket screws were reported with the Logan II MCV from the start of production until 5 February 2019.
