 Description of the problemUnsafe vehicle: 1: car was stationary for a short period at a red light; tried to accelerate & car would not move. Left me stranded for half hour. 2: car was stationary again at red light & stalled, leaving my daughter stranded in the middle of traffic. 3. While driving the car it would not accelerate at all. Most of my road time was highway. Dangerous to not be able to move out of the way of people traveling 70-80mph. 4. While driving, turning at an intersection, the car stalled and would not accelerate, putting my daughter and i in the middle of oncoming traffic. 5. While stationary, car would go into gear, but would not move in any direction. This is the 2nd fiat i owned and will never recommend or buy another one due to safety issues. 1st fiat was fine, this one is unsafe. I have been cheated. I cannot sell or drive the car because its trash and unreliable. My husband is in the military and our family was transferred to hi. We had to leave my car behind on the mainland because it is not drivable. It is sitting, stranded in a driveway while we continue to pay the loan and full coverage insurance. A 5 year old car that i have taken very good care of is literally falling apart and a throw away car. The car was not 5 years old when the issues started. This needs to be taken care of at the expense of the dealer. I have researched this and other fiat owners are having the same issues. I have been told i need a new transmission for $4,000. Why would i be responsible to pay that when there should not be transmission issues on it to begin with? How many other people have to complain for this to come to light? Very unfair to the consumer. My radio also powers down by itself. My air compressor went out & cost 1,700 to replace. When i purchased this car, i was a single mom. I was under the impression i was buying a reliable car that was good on gas and would last many years.

  • 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.
