Stellantis e-CMP: motor síncrono de 100 and 115 kW and baterías de 50 a 75 kWhCharging
On-board charger and charging port: AC charging refused or interrupted on the Stellantis e-CMP (e-208, Corsa-e, ë-C4…)
Why this rating?
Medium severity: It can leave you stranded or get worse if ignored, without destroying the engine.
Frequency occasional: On Fiches-auto.fr, 6 of the 21 owner reports for the 136 hp e-208, 3 of 12 for the e-2008 and 2 of 4 for the ë-C4 mention the charger or charging port, and the same issue also appears on the Corsa-e and 600e. These are voluntary opinions on the same website, with no fleet figures; L’argus adds that a 2022 campaign sometimes required the charger to be replaced. On that basis we rate it ‘occasional’.[1][2][4][5][6]
Symptoms
- The car refuses AC charging, stops it halfway, shows ‘charging complete’ with the battery only partly charged, or does not recognise the cable.[1][3]Charging failure: other faults that cause it · Garage soon
- Charging fault or cable-locking defect warnings appear, sometimes with moisture in the connector.[1][3]Electronic warnings: other faults that cause it · Monitor
Why it happens
The on-board charger converts mains AC into DC; an internal fault, a communication fault with the cable, or a fault in the charging port locking actuator can stop charging, according to Fiches-auto.[2][3]
In the 2022 high-voltage power-cut campaign, Stellantis said the on-board charger or the DC-DC converter sometimes had to be replaced, which links it to the car’s power electronics.[6]
If it is not repaired: The car cannot be charged at home or at slow chargers until it is repaired; DC rapid charging may still work, so the car can be used on journeys with rapid chargers.[1][3]

How much it costs to repair
Includes: Diagnosis and replacement of the on-board charger or of the charging port locking actuator at an official dealer.[1][3]
No published tariff in the sources consulted. Within the manufacturer’s warranty, the brand covers it; we have not verified from an open source the exact terms of the battery and drivetrain warranty.
Prices in Spain, including VAT. A workshop hour costs on average €38–66 at independent garages and €77–134 at dealerships in Spain, depending on the region and the brand. How we calculate costs
How to check for it before buying a used car
- Do a full AC charge (wallbox or slow charger) and another DC charge, and check that the cable lock releases and closes again.[1][3]
- Ask for the history of the 2022 high-voltage power-cut campaign (e-208/e-2008/Corsa-e/DS 3 E-Tense built 2019-2020) and whether the charger was replaced.[6]
- Check how much battery and drivetrain warranty remains.

What owners say
Frequently asked questions
Why won’t my e-208 charge at home but works at a rapid charger?
DC rapid charging does not go through the AC on-board charger. If it fails only on AC, owner reports point to the charger, the cable lock or the port; try another cable before replacing parts.[1][3]
Is the charger covered by the battery warranty?
We have not been able to verify this from an open source; ask an official dealer, depending on the age of the car and the terms of your warranty.[1]
What can you do now?
We will put you in touch with a partner only if you authorise it in the form.

- High severityFrequency: OccasionalPower electronicsLoss of traction from a high-voltage system cut-out (‘electric traction fault’ warning)In 2022 Stellantis recalled the 2019-2020 e-208, e-2008, DS 3 E-Tense and Corsa-e because a high-voltage circuit safety system, set too sensitively, could cut the power and leave the car without traction.
- High severityFrequency: OccasionalTraction batteryTraction battery control calibration: motor cut-out from faulty readings (2022)A faulty software calibration of the battery control unit could misread the cell voltage or temperature and trigger an emergency motor cut-out. It affected Stellantis and Toyota electric cars built in 2022.
- Critical severityFrequency: RareElectronicsAstra Electric: communication fault between control units that can make the car move backwards (2023)In 2023 Opel recalled 1,466 Astra L Electrics because a communication fault between the engine control unit and the body control unit misread the immobiliser data, and the car could move in reverse when pulling away on a slope.
- Medium severityFrequency: OccasionalElectronicsFaulty air-conditioning compressor that can cut the drivetrain (2023)In 2023 the KBA published a campaign for Opel, Peugeot, Citroën and DS electric cars over a faulty air-conditioning compressor that can cause the drivetrain to disconnect. It is fixed with a software update.
