3 recalls across 3 model years
The Peugeot 504 has 3 recalls covering 1975-1979 model years, with the most serious being a wiring defect on 1979 models equipped with optional ARA air conditioning, where an improperly routed electrical wire can short-circuit and start a fire.
The 1978 model year has a separate brake booster issue where an internal piston can seize and prevent the brake pedal from returning to its normal rest position after braking, which can leave the brakes partially applied and affect vehicle control. On 1975 models, the front seat mounting bolts may be incorrectly positioned and insufficiently tightened, meaning the seat can shift or give way and fail to properly restrain an occupant in a crash.
