start-stop-failure-kba

Citroen is recalling 6,838 C5 Aircross vehicles manufactured between 20. 9. 2023 and 5. 5. 2025. The recall is due to the Body Control Module (BCM) error which prevents the engine from switching off in start-stop mode. This increases CO2 emissions.

The same problem may occur with 22,796 Jeep Avenger vehicles with the production period between 5. 11. 2024 and 24. 6. 2025.

At an authorised workshop, the body control module (BCM) software is updated.

The Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (KBA) monitors the recall under the reference number “15646R, 15564R“. The internal manufacturer codes are “GL8, 65C“.

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.
