Description of the problem	Engine oil cooler has failed 2 times once at around 70k miles and again at 90k miles. Oil leaks on top of engine block and runs down the back to the transmission on to the exhaust and could easily cause a fire. Fiat does not care when i reported it and it is a very common problem with the engine in multiple vehicles. Dealer wanted $3,000 to replace it when the problem was 12 dollar o rings on the adapter. The plastic housing that sits on top of a hot engine flexes and allows the o rings to leak. There has to be a way to replace that part with something safer but they wont cause it would cost them to much money and good luck proving what happened to start the fire when the plastic housing just burns away in a fire or your engine blows to low oil.
