This has been the MOST miserable car I have ever owned.
Well, as usual, its the company that produces said product that is most negligent .
What is worse it is not the cars fault, it is the Ivory Tower attitude that came with it.
Fiat Just does not care.
Period!
They have a program called "Fiat Cares", LOL I am here to tell you Fiat could give one crap and less about a customer .
They sent me supposedly all "set up" to a dealer in VT ( I live in NYS) I had the man's name "Dick" the service manger in hand from Fiat cares.
I drive over 2.5 hours to the place , the 1st thing on Monday morning, a month ago-.
He says who sent ya?
He had no clue I was coming !
and no
No, we dont fix that.
OMFG !
The dealer in Albany will not even talk to me. He says I live too far away from them and I should have not ever bought the car ! (Tom in the service dept said that to me )
This car has gone through 20 tires in 60,ooo miles !
*Cooling leaks under the car
*The shifter has failed 2 times, towed two times . Cables i am told.
It sat in their shop the first time 28 days! ( they would NOT give me a loaner either )
*Rear calipers have seized 3 times .
*The driver seat belt will not retract. (Hangs out the door after I get out ) Bam!
*Tire monitoring system has NOT ever worked, (Ok exaggeration maybe it has for one month)
*Rear hatch is electric and will not open.
*Driver window is electric and will not work.
*body skirts under the doors have fallen off.
*ALL THE WHEEL BEARING HAVE BEEN REPLACE AND REARS ARE NOW howling AGAIN !
Shall I go on?.
There is a LOT more , but i think the point can readily bee seen..
A Warning to the world - DO NOT go near a Fiat !
