2014-17 Peugeot 308, 508 recalled for starter motor fix – UPDATE

French automaker Peugeot has issued a recall for 1058 examples of its 308 and 508 model lines sold between November 2014 and March 2017 over concerns a faulty starter motor connection could pose a fire risk.


The company reports that the 12-Volt starter motor connection lug could be fitted incorrectly, and touch a metal component.

If the condition occurs, this could cause a short circuit, potentially posing a fire hazard.
