Peugeot 3008 and 5008 recalled over headrest defect

20/10/2025

Peugeot is recalling 9,447 3008 and 5008 vehicles manufactured between 23 September 2024 and 5 November 2024 to authorized workshops worldwide. The reason for the recall is that defective locking notches on the headrest mountings may cause the headrests not to remain in the adjusted position.

At an authorized workshop, the headrests will be checked and, if necessary, replaced.

The Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) monitors the recall under the reference number “14828R“. The internal manufacturer code is “MVC“.
