Does a recall affect your Peugeot RCZ?

Not every Peugeot RCZ 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.

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.
Vehicles affected
12,833 across everything the recall covers
Built
3 Sept 2012 to 19 Dec 2014

2011 1 recall

Fuel may leak

Launched 22 February 2011 DVSA recall R/2011/017 Manufacturer ref. YYW

Defect
On some 2.0 l HDI vehicles potential contact between the fuel return pipe and the diesel filter support may eventually cause the pipe to become worn through friction.
Remedy
The manufacturer has requested that some protection be added to the pipe to ensure its long-term resistance to wear.
Vehicles affected
2,834 across everything the recall covers
Built
27 Oct 2009 to 20 Jul 2010

2010 1 recall

Loss of braking efficiency.

Launched 15 June 2010 DVSA recall R/2010/064 Manufacturer ref. YVS

Defect
Over a period of time it is possible for the front brake hoses to deteriorate through contact with other components. If left for some time it is possible that the brake hoses will leak fluid and there to be a loss of braking efficiency.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace both the front brake flexi hoses.
Vehicles affected
217 RCZ vehicles
Built
9 Dec 2009 to 31 Mar 2010

  • Road vehicle recalls (DVSA numbers starting R/) whose model names match the Peugeot RCZ. 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.
