Description of the problem	In three occasions while driving the vehicle at different times during mild traffic, the car starts to smoke, a bad smell starts entering the cabin and the car and engine have died, i could also not put it in reverse in front of my house once. At another instance while on the highway the same thing happened (smoke/shut off) and i got stranded on the side of the road where a family member had to come and get me. The car has shut off with no availability to move forward or backward. The transmission euro clutch automatic transmission has been the culprit and the dealership has fixed it twice already but with no long term solution. This is expected to happen again, and they have warned me that i should drive it like a manual in manual mode to avoid any future issues, even though the car is an automatic. This is a major flaw that fiat overlooked, they even changed the transmission the following year to a conventional aisin automatic and got rid of the euro clutch automatic. Sometimes needs to be done as i planned on keeping this vehicle for a long time and i am now very dissatisfied with my purchase.
