2013 Fiat 500 Structure Body Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1561177
Internal NHTSA #	11205236
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	FIAT
Model	500
Model Year	2013
File date	15/01/19
Component	STRUCTURE:BODY
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Twice since 2014, the heavy driver side, glass window has slid down into the door and has needed expensive repairs. Driving without a functioning driver side window is not safe. The vehicle was parked when this happened. Also at least one or other of the headlamps needed changing, three times, creating an unsafe vehicle until i had the time to get in and have them fixed. The doors are extremely heavy and the stops that hold them open, do not work when the car is not parked on the level (which it hardly ever is, in the hilly san francisco bay area). This creates a major risk of the heavy door slamming onto your lower limbs as you get in and out of the car. These are significant safety defects in the design of this car, and should be reported to the manufacturer.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
