- 1.2 PureTech "Wet Belt" DegradationSerious
The 1.2 PureTech three-cylinder petrol engine utilises a wet timing belt running bathed in engine oil. The rubber belt degrades over time due to fuel dilution and heat cycles, shedding rubber debris into the oil sump. This debris clogs the oil pickup strainer, causing oil starvation, vacuum pump failure, and dangerous loss of brake servo assistance (Recall R/2020/331), leading to engine destruction if neglected.
- AdBlue / BlueHDi Emissions FailureSerious
On 1.5 and 2.0 BlueHDi diesel models, the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) AdBlue tank houses an integrated pump, heating element, and urea level sensor. Crystallisation of urea solution and internal circuit board failure cause delivery failure, illuminating the UREA warning lamp and initiating a non-restart countdown (commencing at 700 miles). Because the tank is a sealed unit, complete replacement of the tank assembly is required.
- 1.5 BlueHDi Camshaft Timing Chain SnappingSerious
The 1.5-litre BlueHDi (DV5R) 16-valve engine fitted from late 2017 utilizes an internal 7mm chain to connect the twin camshafts. Inadequate lubrication tolerance and high stress lead to premature chain stretch, rattling, and sudden breakage. Chain failure bends valves, shears camshaft carriers, and destroys the cylinder head. Stellantis issued a special coverage programme and upgraded replacement kit with an 8mm chain and redesigned cylinder head housing.
