Stellantis
The Stellantis company was created when Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Group or Peugeot merged their companies to encompass all of the brands listed above and two companies that focus on care sharing and rental services, Free2move and Leasys. The joining of these two large names in the auto industry created a single company that now ranks fourth in the world in global vehicle sales. It is also worth mentioning that they are the second-largest in the European market, and the commercial vehicle division, Stellantis Pro One, is the leader in sales in Europe.

As you might assume, the more vehicles a manufacturer builds and the greater the number of various models, the more recalls you can expect from that automaker. This is very true of the Stellantis brands, as they typically lead the list of vehicle models with recalls. According to Forbes, Stellantis recalled 4.8 million vehicles in 2024. Kelley Blue Book also discussed this massive number in an article, mentioning them as a leader in recalls and Autoguide calling out the company for 72 recalls in that year.
