Peugeot 2008: Fuel May Leak

Peugeot Recall Summary Peugeot is recalling 258 units of the 2008, 208, and 308 models due to a potential fuel injector supply rail leak. The leak can reduce fuel pressure, affecting the stop-start system and potentially preventing engine restart, and in rare cases may cause fuel spray under the hood, creating a fire risk. Dealers will inspect and replace the fuel injector supply rail if necessary.
