Citroën C5 Aircross: Water penetration can lead to battery fire

Citroen-C5-Aircross-2023-battery-fire-kba

Citroën is recalling 23,917 C5 Aircross vehicles from the production period 2020 to 2023. The reason for the measure is that water penetration can lead to rusting through the battery reinforcement and the battery box. This can result in a battery or vehicle fire in the worst case.

The corrosion protection of the battery pack is improved in the workshop. The KBA is investigating the measure under the reference number “012666“, and the manufacturer’s internal code is “JHW“.

What the owner should do?

If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.

If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
