Peugeot Expert 4: Engine Oil Gallery Sealing Plug Incorrectly Tightened

Peugeot is recalling 282 vehicles from multiple models (Expert 4, 3008, 308, Boxer, 5008, and Traveller) because an engine oil gallery sealing plug may not be tightened to the correct specification. This could cause oil to leak over time and, in rare cases, result in oil on the road. The fix involves re-tightening the sealing plug to the proper torque specification.
