Recall of thousands of Citroëns, Peugeot and Opels following an engine problem, here are the vehicles affected
Stellantis is therefore recalling more than 52,000 vehicles equipped with the 1.5 BlueHDi (DV5R E6.3) diesel engine due to nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions that exceed regulatory limits, as reported Capital.
What vehicles are recalled by Stellantis?
The problem specifically concerns vehicles with less than 20,000 kilometers that mainly circulate in cities, produced between January 2022 and January 2023. According to Stellantis, this non-compliance is due to insufficient exhaust gas temperature which affects the efficiency of the post-processing system. The manufacturer specifies that the current calibration guarantees correct efficiency once 20,000 kilometers have been reached.
The vehicles concerned are:
