- 1.2 PureTech "Wet Belt" DegradationSerious
The 1.2 PureTech petrol engine features an internal timing belt submerged in crankcase engine oil. Fuel dilution and thermal breakdown cause the belt surface to degrade and shed rubber particles into the lubrication circuit. This debris clogs the oil pickup strainer, starving the vacuum pump and resulting in sudden loss of braking servo assistance (Recall R/2020/331), as well as risking terminal engine damage.
- Infotainment & i-Cockpit Software BugsModerate
The Peugeot i-Connect and i-Connect Advanced infotainment system on Mk3 models suffers from software instability. Owners experience blank black screens, sluggish menu navigation, freezing digital i-Toggle shortcut bars, and dropped wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections. Dealership firmware updates are required to resolve system crashes and restore responsive touch control.
- 1.5 BlueHDi 7mm Camshaft Chain SnappingSerious
Early Mk3 1.5 BlueHDi diesel models built prior to early 2023 use a 7mm chain connecting the twin camshafts. The chain is susceptible to premature wear, elongation, and snapping under load. When the chain breaks, the valves impact the pistons, breaking rocker arms and destroying the camshaft carrier. Stellantis instituted an extended warranty campaign and replacement 8mm chain kit with modified cylinder head components.
