Does a recall affect your Peugeot 807?

Not every Peugeot 807 is affected. Each recall covers cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, which DVSA’s file does not list in full. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check with its registration, or ask the manufacturer or a dealer, who can check the VIN.

Peugeot 807 recalls by year

Recalls launched each year, 2003 to 2026

2010 had the most, with 4. A count of recalls is not a measure of safety: one recall can cover a handful of cars or tens of thousands.

2015 1 recall

Fuel may leak

Launched 9 December 2015 DVSA recall R/2015/241 Manufacturer ref. ZZV

Defect
The fuel heating device integrated in to the diesel fuel filter cover may be defective and allow heat to build up within the electrical supply connector causing the cover to distort and air to enter the fuel circuit. This could make the vehicles difficult to start and a warning light will be illuminated on the dash board. The engine could be difficult or not possible to start. In the worst cases a diesel fuel leak could eventually appear.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the fuel heater cover. Additionally the electrical connector will be inspected and where necessary replaced.

  • Road vehicle recalls (DVSA numbers starting R/) whose model names match the Peugeot 807. DVSA records some recalls under a range or chassis name we cannot match, so this list may be incomplete.
  • Vehicles affected is the number the manufacturer reported to DVSA. When one recall covers several models, DVSA often gives only the total.
  • Build dates are the periods the manufacturer gave. Some recalls have none. VINs are not shown.
  • Concerns written in capitals have been put in sentence case, and apostrophes lost in DVSA’s file have been put back. The text is otherwise DVSA’s.
