| Description of the problem | I brought my 2014 500l to fiat dealer to take care of the recalls regarding the shifting and engine idle speed. Before i brought their it was running fine. I got it back the same day and when i received it got a report that all was good. Now my car is acting up. Sometimes i step on accelerator and nothing happens that was at my home. Also when put into drive it doesn't engage and on the screen it tells me to put in park then neutral and then drive that was at my sons school. Some times it still doesn't work and have to do it multiple times. I brought it back and told them their software upgrade has made my car worse than it was. They evaluated it and the service writer said he would need to charge me 8hrs of labor @ $185 an hr. Just to evaluate the problem. It still their and will call fiat directly to try to resolve this problem that was supposed to be the recall. |
