Fiat recall

[cookie]

Hi anyone else had a Fiat recall notice for a steering knuckle possible fault?

We are heading to spain so going to be fun finding a fiat garage to check it out.

Should we be worried ? Its only just gone through 1st mot with no issues.

If it’s gone through mot recently and it’s a garage you trust I would not be immediately concerned.
But it depends on the urgency of the recall status

Here are the details on the Gov website doesn't sound too serious. Why not phone Fiat customer services and get their opinion.

If fiat know that exactly 2633 vehicles are affected then they will likely know the chassis numbers.

If you look up the recall on the Fiat site it should give vin numbers of affected vehicles.

Obviously not urgent only applied to a few 2020 built vehicles.

My 2019 had the Knuckle call near side one replaced.

Is it this one?

Fiat Ducato recall

Received a notification that Fiat have had problems with Steering Knuckles. Fiat reference is 6291. Our van is a 2019 model. Got it booked in for an inspection next week but they’ve said that if the part is nonconforming we will have to leave the van there. They will then have to make a warranty...

Had a good look this morning all round the knuckles , no damage or any cracks or cracking , no where near any garages till Monday so will drive slower and carefully and check them everyone we stop.

Since we've had this van we've covered about 6k this year , with no issues , its just a bummer we've had this recall away from home and no where near a dealer.

Thanks for helps people.

Keep you informed

Just a follow up.

Had the van checked today , at fiat dealership , san javier , Spain.

Everythings OK.

Looked at recall and checks to be made.
Inspected , one of the checks is to measure gap where knuckle clamps on. Tolerance was OK.

Thanks for help.
