3 known faults with sources

Engines: 1.0 TCe (H4Dt) (Petrol) · 1.0 TCe ECO-G (GLP) (LPG / CNG) · Hybrid 140 (Hybrid)

Applies if: The gear change affects manual versions; the injection warning, the ECO-G; the gearbox sealing, the Hybrid 140.

Hard gear changes, LPG injection warning and hybrid gearbox sealing on the JoggerGearbox

Engine / equipment: Dacia Jogger (1.0 TCe, 1.0 TCe ECO-G LPG and Hybrid 140)
Period mentioned: 2022–2025
Symptoms: With the manual gearbox, gears that are hard to engage and clutches that fail early; on the ECO-G, an “injection fault” message and warning light; on the Hybrid 140, a gearbox that overheats or misbehaves.
Possible cause described: L’argus’s buyer’s guide records owners of manual versions complaining that gears are hard to engage, which Dacia fixes by reprogramming the engine ECU (campaign EEB3: too little torque reaches the gearbox during the change; according to the Romanian press, clutches damaged by it are replaced under warranty); a 2022 campaign for the “injection à contrôler” message on the LPG versions; and a 2025 one to check the sealing of the 1.6 hybrid gearbox, whose failure can make it overheat or malfunction.
Check for the garage: Ask by VIN whether the EEB3, LPG and hybrid-gearbox campaigns were done; try every gear from cold; look for oil residue under the hybrid gearbox.
Cost cited in the source: Free under the recall.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.

Engines: 1.0 TCe ECO-G (GLP) (LPG / CNG)

Applies if: Only cars built from 30/6/2020 to 1/11/2022.

"Check injection" message on the LPG 1.0 ECO-G, fixed with a new calibrationIntake / engine management

Engine / equipment: 1.0 TCe ECO-G (petrol and LPG) in the Sandero III, Duster II and Jogger
Period mentioned: 2020–2022
Symptoms: "Check injection" message with the orange warning light on, especially when running on LPG.
Possible cause described: Dacia fixes it with a special technical operation (since September 2022) for Sandero, Duster and Jogger ECO-G cars built from 30/6/2020 to 1/11/2022: a new injection calibration by reprogramming, without replacing parts, according to L'argus.
Check for the garage: Note whether it happens on LPG or petrol, and in hot weather. At the dealer, ask about the special recalibration operation before replacing injectors or the LPG reducer.
Cost cited in the source: No verified estimate; ask the garage for a quote.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.

Engines: Hybrid 140 (Hybrid)

Applies if: Only 79 Jogger in the recall (Dacia campaign 0EWW, built up to 26/9/2022). Confirm by VIN.

Oil inside the electric motor of the 1.6 E-Tech: hollow primary shaft O-ringGearbox

Engine / equipment: 1.6 E-Tech hybrid (140/145 hp) and plug-in hybrid (160 hp): Clio V, Captur II, Mégane IV and Arkana
Period mentioned: 2019–2024
Symptoms: The message “surchauffe moteur électrique” (electric motor overheating, Renault internal code 0A9098) or loss of drive when pulling away that means the car has to be towed (code 16D861).
Possible cause described: The O-ring on the electric motor's hollow primary shaft does not seal properly and gearbox oil gets into the electric motor. In May 2024 Renault opened a special technical operation (OTS) for cars built from 26/8/2019 to 2/2/2024 (157,595 cars in France) and in August 2025 a recall (Renault campaign 0ET1 and Dacia 0EWW) for 155,825 cars built from 5/4/2019 to 26/9/2022, including 79 Dacia Jogger.
Check for the garage: Check by VIN with Renault or Dacia whether the car is in campaign 0ET1 / 0EWW and whether it has been done. With the overheating warning, the garage removes the electric motor temperature sensor and looks for oil; if there is any, it replaces the O-ring, cleans the electric motor and may update the HEVC and HECM computers. If the car no longer drives, the whole gearbox is replaced.
Cost cited in the source: Free under the recall; the 2024 operation covered it 100% up to 7 years or 150,000 km.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.
