My vehicle has abruptly shut off on my twice now. The first time, i had just made a turn from a busy intersection near my home when the vehicle came to a stop. Though the car stopped moving, none of the electrical functions of would shut off. I had to disconnect the battery to make it shut off. I had the car towed to the car dealership for service, and they returned the car to me, doing nothing because the issue didn't happen when they started the car a day later. Fast forward several weeks, the car stopped -- this time on the final space of a bridge. By the grace of god, we coasted to the bottom of the bridge where the car stopped completely. Again, the car wouldn't shut off, but it just didn't move. I had to disconnect the battery. This time, i left the car where it was, and i returned to pick up the car 24 hours later. The car started and ran just fine. I then had it towed to the dealership because i was feeling uncomfortable driving it. They have kept the car for four days, and they called me to say they didn't do anything because they can't figure out what's wrong with it. Because there's an outstanding recall (and, coincidentally, an ensuing class action lawsuit) on the car, they told me they would initiate the recall action. This is two part action -- i believe -- because fiat has no intentions of paying for these repairs. I do not know if this is what is wrong with my car, but the mechanic did indicate that the oil consumption issue manifests itself in the ways i have described. So i have to keep my car for 1,500 to 1,700 miles and then only return to the dealership if i believe it's the oil consumption issue. I'm not sure how i'm supposed to determine that. Additionally, because we're in a pandemic, and i wfh, it will take me ten+ months to accrue that many drive miles.
The car stopped working suddenly in the miami turnpike, drive mode not available went on, also abs, parking and engine lights went on. It was scary because stopped working without previous notice. We almost have an accident. It happens the same in 2015, same model in tampa highway.
Rear lift gate unexpectedly unlatches.this happens when passive locking and unlocking is activated. This happens sometimes while the car is running and can happen when vehicle is stationary ormoving
I have had several warning lights that have come on several different times while in motion and while parked since i purchased my vehicle a few months ago. Service abs, dynamic steering torque, service electronic parking brake, service hill hold control. The first time these lights came on i took it back to the dealership. They said the lights didn't come on during the week they had it. Since then the lights have come on several days while driving on the city streets and highways.

This car in betwen oil changes burn the oil complete.we talk about 4 / 6 months. The first time my wife drive the carand the motor stop in the middle of the street, very dangerus.after aprox. 6 months later before change the oilburn one more time and the motor was empty, no oil.in both cases i add oil in order to move the car to the dealership. The dealership have service bolletin, they check the car, they said is normal for this car. Somebody need die in order to the dealership recognaize is a real problem.
The car stopped working suddenly in the miami turnpike, drive mode not available went on, also abs, parking and engine lights went on. It was scary because stopped working without previous notice. We almost have an accident. It happens the same in 2015, same model in tampa highway.
The forward collision warning system does not function at all. Took it to two different fiat dealers and since there are no codes system operating,but does not work at all.
Service transmission light appears followed by "drive mode unavailable."when this happens, the vehicle is basically in "neutral."this happened several times while driving, including city streets and on a 65 mph highway.the only recourse is to immediately pull over (while drifting) and turn the car off and on several times until the display clears.fiat service updated vehicle control modules to no avail.tcm was replaced to no avail.
The seat belt will not buckle. But shows that it is buckled.

On january 9th, 2018 i leased a new 2017 fiat 500x from fiat auto gallery van nuys at 5711 van nuys blvd, van nuys, ca 91401. Two weeks later while washing my car for the first time, i noticed some cloudy spots on the car's exterior paint (3 spots) and what appeared to be a burn spot on the left passenger door. I immediately took the car to the dealership for inspection. The dealer informed me that it was a manufacturing issue that needed to be handled by fiat. They took pictures and were supposed to contact the appropriate department at fiat to handle my case. After several weeks of no activity, i called customer service at fiat directly and had them open a case for me. The case agent coordinated with the dealership to send the pictures to the appropriate department at fiat, an inspector came out to inspect my vehicle and it was determined that in fact, my car's paint had a manufacturer's defect. This was determined back in april and fiat has failed to resolve my case. I have called several times and have been lied to repeatedly that someone would be in touch with me to either replace my vehicle or have me turn in the vehicle for a full refund. It has been 10 months since i alerted fiat of the issue and they refuse to resolve my case.
