How this compares
Among the 60 models we publish an EU recall page for, the Skoda Octavia ranks #44 by overall signal strength. Its 17 EU Safety Gate campaigns are about the same as the median of 17 for this set. Its 29 KBA campaigns are fewer than the median of 34. Its RDW open-recall share is fewer than the 5.9% median.
Counts across sources are not comparable to each other and are never summed: a Safety Gate alert and a KBA campaign can describe the same defect or different ones. Treat each as one advisory pointer.
Typical mileage for the Skoda Octavia
Pair these recall signals with the odometer distribution for the model year you are looking at:
Match the campaign’s production dates to the car, then ask the manufacturer or an authorised dealer to check its VIN and confirm whether the repair is complete. A model-level list cannot establish that.
