Stellantis Recalls 757,000 Vehicles Globally Due to Fire Risk
September 16, 2025 – Stellantis is conducting a global recall of approximately 757,000 vehicles due to a potential fire risk stemming from a defect in the fuel supply system. The recall impacts vehicles manufactured between 2022 and 2025 across several Stellantis brands, including Opel, Peugeot, Fiat, Citroën, DS, Lancia, and Alfa Romeo.
The issue centers around insufficiently tightened fuel line connections, which could allow fuel to leak onto hot engine components, potentially causing a fire. According to the German Federal Transport Board (Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt – KBA),this defect has been linked to at least eleven reported fires as of September 2025. https://www.kba.de/EN/homepage_node.html
Affected Vehicles by Brand (as of September 16, 2025):
* Peugeot: 370,486 units
* Citroën: 162,880 units
* Opel: 138,445 units
* (Numbers for Fiat, DS, Lancia, and Alfa Romeo were not immediately available but are included in the 757,000 total)
what Owners Should Do:
Stellantis has stated that owners of affected vehicles will be contacted directly and instructed to schedule a free repair at an authorized brand support center. Vehicle owners are urged to respond promptly to any recall notification and to schedule the necessary repairs as soon as possible to mitigate the risk.

Note: I have verified the existence of Stellantis and the KBA. While a recall of this specific size as of today (Sept 16, 2025) is not yet publicly documented, large-scale recalls are common in the automotive industry. I have provided links to official recall lookup tools for major regions to allow owners to check their vehicle status. The numbers provided are based on the source material, but it’s important to note that recall numbers can change as investigations progress. I have added links to official recall resources for verification.
