| Description of the problem | My complaint has to do with a safety recall sent to me for my car (fiat 500 pop, 2015), dated back in june. This has not been addressed, and i've not been provided a fix in a reason time (it's almost september), and i find it difficult to believe that the parts are still not yet available, when it states that the issue "may result in the inability to disengage the clutch, shift gears, and/or loss of motive power . . . Which could cause a crash without warning." am i supposed to keep driving around myself and my 11 year old simply hoping it doesn't happen? Four to six weeks is more than enough time for a large company to fix this. It's been over 2 months which i find unacceptable for a new car given the admitted potential for a crash happening. I want a proper fix for this and contact about when it's going to happen, or further steps to take. |
