1.2 Turbo 100

  1. Degraded “wet” timing belt (1.2 PureTech)

    Severity 3/3 · Serious

    On the 1.2 PureTech, the timing belt runs in oil and can disintegrate. Its debris clogs the oil strainer, causing oil pressure to drop, which can destroy the engine. Stellantis extended the belt warranty to 10 years or 175,000 km, subject to servicing conditions, and introduced a new-generation belt in June 2022.

1.5 Diesel 110

  1. Premature wear of the timing chain (1.5 BlueHDi)

    Severity 2/3 · Costly

    On the 1.5 BlueHDi (DV5), the timing chain can stretch prematurely because of oil carbonisation; the first sign is a rattle on cold start. A break can damage the engine. Vehicles built between 6 December 2017 and 31 January 2023 are subject to a recall. On the Mokka, the recall concerns 1.5 BlueHDi (DV5R) engines built between 3 February 2021 and 30 January 2023; the 7 mm chain is replaced by a reinforced 8 mm chain.
