Each campaign in detail

  1. Takata driver airbag (recall)

    Manufacturer recall

    In June 2024 Opel launched a recall campaign for around 25,000 first-generation Mokka built from 2012 to 2015 in France, to replace the Takata driver airbag. The replacement is free at the dealer and takes about twenty minutes; the campaign was later extended to more than 53,000 Mokka, Astra and Vectra. Check with the serial number that the airbag has been replaced.

    Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
