Peugeot also recalls 561 cars from the Expert, Traveller, 208 and 2008 model ranges due to a possible fault in the high-voltage wiring harness. Cars with production dates in March and April 2022 are at increased fire risk.
With 31,157 Peugeot 208s built between August and November 2021, the fuel line may come into contact with other components. If it were damaged, fuel would leak, increasing the fire risk. We wrote about this recall a week ago in our article Peugeot recall due to door opening and fire risk.
