What changed since we first read it
Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.
The same recall in other registers
No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.

Peugeot 3008 in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Peugeot 3008 is named on 59 European notices, 7 Japanese and 23 Israeli. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The European register
The Japanese register
The Israeli register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

The same concern: Engine could overheat leading to failure
2 notices in this register name Engine could overheat leading to failure. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.
Reading this against the source
This page is what the DVSA published in its file of vehicle recalls, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /uk-recalls, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
