2012 Fiat 500 complaints

MY WIFE WAS EXITING A MALL PARKING LOT TO PULL INTO THE LEFT TURN LANE OF THE ADJOINING ROAD (A VERY SHORT DISTANCE, PERHAPS 25 FEET). THERE WAS A CAR ALREADY IN THE LEFT TURN LANE, WHICH WAS WAITING FOR THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL TO CHANGE. WHILE PULLING IN BEHIND THIS CAR, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE CAR SUDDENLY AND RAPIDLY ACCELERATED. PRESSING HARDER ON THE BRAKE HAD NO EFFECT. WITH ONLY 1 OR 2 SECONDS TO REACT, A FUTILE ATTEMPT WAS MADE TO STEER CLEAR OF THE CAR AHEAD, WHICH WAS STRUCK. THE FIAT THEN VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND HIT A SECOND CAR THAT HAD BEEN WAITING FOR THE LIGHT IN THE RIGHT LANE. THE SECOND CAR WAS PUSHED INTO A VEHICLE AHEAD OF IT WHICH HAD ALSO BEEN WAITING FOR THE LIGHT. AFTER STRIKING THIS SECOND VEHICLE, THE FIAT FINALLY CAME TO A HALT IN THE RIGHT LANE.

FIRST OF ALL WHILE DRIVING AROUND TOWN MY CLUTCH STARTED FEELING LOOSE, 2 DAYS LATER CHANGING GEARS GETTING HARDER. I WAS TOLD BY A SHOP THAT I NEED TO REPLACE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY, CLUTCH, & CLUTCH PLATE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS ALL TAKEN CARE OF WITB THE RECALL?

AIRBAG COVER IS LOOSE AND I CAN SEE THE AIRBAG.

THE STARTER MOTOR FAILS TO ENGAGE AT RANDOM TIMES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TO LOCAL MECHANICS AND NONE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE STARTER MOTOR WILL SOMETIMES START RIGHT UP FOR THEM, CAUSING THEM TO RULE OUT A FAULTY STARTER. IF THE VEHICLE IS LEFT OVER NIGHT, IT MAY START RIGHT BACK UP. AFTER SELLING THE CAR ON 2 OCCASIONS, BOTH NEW OWNERS REPORTED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF OWNERSHIP THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AFTER HAVING DRIVEN IT FOR MORE THAN 10MI. I BELIEVE FCA IS WELL-AWARE OF THIS RELATIVELY COMMON ISSUE. A GOOGLE SEARCH FOR THIS PROBLEM YIELDS PAGES UPON PAGES OF OWNERS REPORTING SIMILAR ISSUES. I CAN SHARE YOUTUBE VIDEOS OF OWNER'S EITHER REPORTING THE PROBLEM OR COMMENTS OF OTHERS HAVING A SIMILAR ISSUE HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=L7SOEZKWUT4 HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=PFFVY3ARSVS

WHILE DRIVING HOME VIA LOCAL CITY SURFACE STREETS, THE GEARBOX FAIL LIGHT AND THE HAVE TRANSMISSION CHECKED MESSAGE CAME UP ON THE DASH CLUSTER. I DROVE THE CAR 4 MORE MILES TO A SERVICE STATION, STOPPING TWICE ON THE WAY. THE CAR BEGAN RUNNING POORLY. INCLUDING BUCKING, REVVING HIGH, WHILE STAYING AT LOW SPEED, STALLING AND BUCKING AT LIGHTS LOW IDLE OR STOPS. THE SERVICE STATION SAID OTHER THAN A LOW NUMBER (4 TIMES PER 1000 I THINK...A CYLINDER MISFIRE) NO CODES CAME UP. WHEN RESET THE CAR WOULD RUN BRIEFLY AS NORMAL BUTAT FIRST STOP ALL ISSUES WOULD RESUME IN FULL AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME (2 BLOCKS) BUT WAS NOT SURE IT WOULD MAKE IT. IT SITS IN MY PARKING SPOT AS WE SPEAK.

I AM A REAL ESTATE AGENT. LAST YEAR 2019 I WENT TO AN OPEN HOUSE AND PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WHICH WAS ON AN INCLINE - WITH A PLATEAU FOR PARKING. I'VE BEEN DRIVING A STANDARD TRANSMISSION FOR 30 YEARS. WHEN I PARK I PLACE MY GEAR IN 1ST WITH THE PARKING BRAKE FULLY ENGAGED. I PARKED THE CAR, WENT INTO THE HOME TO VIEW THE HOME, AND WAS INSIDE 15 MINUTES. WHEN I WENT BACK TO MY CAR, IT WAS GONE. THE CAR HAD ROLLED BACKWARD DOWN THE HILL AND INTO A GUARDRAIL. THERE WERE NEIGHBORS ALL AROUND MY CAR, AND ONE MAN SAID, "IT MAKES NO SENSE IT THE PARKING BREAK IS ENGAGED." THE NEIGHBORS HAD VIDEO OF THE CRASH. THE CAR WAS PARKED APPROX 10 MINUTES BEFORE ROLLING DOWN THE HILL. MY CAR WAS DAMAGED BY THE GUARD RAIL, AND THANKFULLY NO HUMANS WERE HURT. HAD THE GUARDRAIL NOT BEEN THERE -- THE CAR WOULD HAVE GONE OVER A RAVINE AND INTO A HOME.

WE RECENTLY WENT IN FOR A RECALL TO THE SHIFT MECHANISM. UPON COMPLETION, THE DEALER FAILED TO SECURE THE GROUND WIRE BACK TO THE BATTERY. AFTER A FEW SHORT TRIPS, THE LOOSE CONNECTION CAUSED THE ALTERNATOR TO FAIL. THE DEALER WILL NOT TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS AND WANTS $930 FOR THE REPAIR. CUSTOMER SERVICE BELIEVES THIS IS SIMPLY AN OLD CAR AND WILL NOT SUPPORT IT EITHER. ULTIMATELY THIS WILL CAUSE US TO THINK TWICE BEFORE ACTING ON THE NEXT RECALL NOTICE.

STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGH PUT CAR IN NETURAL WHEN TRIED SWITCH INTO GEAR COULD NOT HAD TO PUSH CAR OFF ROAD IN HIGH TRAFIC ARE. ON LINE RECALL STATES DUE TO FRACTURE IN DIAPHRAGM CAUSING INABILITY TO SWITCH GEARS

WE'VE REPLACED THE SHIFTER CABLE ON THE FIAT TWICE ON OUR OWN. RECENTLY, FIAT REPLACED IT UNDER RECALL NO. 19V817000. FIAT'S REPLACEMENT CABLE/BUSHING LASTED THREE SHIFTS. SHIFTED INTO DRIVE TO LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP. SHIFTED INTO PARK AT HOME. SHIFTED INTO DRIVE ON NEXT USE AND THE CABLE WAS DETACHED. FIAT'S SOLUTION IS NOT AN IMPROVEMENT. COMPARING THE REPLACEMENT BUSHING WITH THE OLD BUSHING, THERE ISN'T ANY DIFFERENCE THAT WILL PREVENT THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME IT OCCURRED WE WERE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET FROM REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPORT AND THE CABLE BUSHING FAILING WHEN WE WENT TO PUT IT IN DRIVE. THE REPAID UNDER 19V817000 IS NOT A CORRECTIVE REPAIR.

CAR SOMETIMES CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. ALL GUAGES SPIKE, CAR CUTS OFF. I PULL OVER AND IT STARTS BACK UP. NO CODES WERE STORED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM.

ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6, 2019 MY 2012 FIAT 500 BEGAN TO EMIT A STRONG ODOR. I THOUGHT THE CAR WOULD CATCH ON FIRE. THE CAR ALSO MADE A LOUD, SCREECHING AND GRINDING NOISE. WHEN I ARRIVED SAFELY TO MY DESTINATION, A FEW MINUTES AWAY, I STOPPED AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. I HAD TO CANCEL A HAIR APPOINTMENT BECAUSE I DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE DISTANCE IN THE VEHICLE. ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2019 I TOOK MY CAR INTO A FIAT CHRYSLER DODGE RAM JEEP DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND FREE BASIC INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THEY ALSO HEARD THE NOISE COMING FROM THE CLUTCH AREA BUT NEEDED TO PERFORM AN OFFICIAL DIAGNOSTIC. I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY AT THE TIME SO I WAITED UNTIL JANUARY 2, 2020 TO HAVE THE DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. DURING THE MONTH OF DECEMBER AND WHILE MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP I TOOK LYFT RIDESHARE FOR TRANSPORTATION AS I DID NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR. THE CAR STAYED IN THE SHOP OVER THE WEEKEND AND I WAS ABLE TO PICK IT UP ON MONDAY, JANUARY 6, 2020. THE ISSUE WAS RELATED TO A RECALL FCA # S34, NHTSA# 16V-302 THAT HAPPENED A COUPLE YEARS BEFORE. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE RESOLVED FOR THIS VEHICLE BUT I WAS HAVING SIMILAR AND WORSE PROBLEMS, WHICH ARE DUE TO THE PREVIOUS FAULTY CAR PART. THE FIAT HAS ONLY $113K MILES ON IT. I HAVE OWNED MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLES PREVIOUSLY AND NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE. I PREVIOUSLY OWNED A HONDA CIVIC (GAINED OVER 200K MILES) AND A CHEVY AVEO AND NEITHER CAR HAD THIS ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND MYSELF

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY DEALERSHIP, AND A STATED THAT THERE WAS A VALVE AT THE TOP OF MY GAS AT THE TOP OF MY FUEL TANK THAT IS PREVENTING THE GAS FROM DRAINING INTO THE TANK. NOTHING THAT I DID OR COULD HAVE DONE CAUSED THIS ISSUE TO BREAK. AND WHEN I INQUIRED ABOUT REPLACING THE VALVE THEY STATED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK SYSTEM, BUT THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER FOR 1 TO 2 MONTHS BECAUSE THEY WERE SOLD OUT.

HELLO, I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I THEM TO FIX MY SHIFTER CABLE RECALL AND THEY SAID WE DON'T HAVE THIS PART YET TILL NEXT YEAR AND I NEED TO REMOVE THE RECALL TO START RENT MY CAR THROUGH TURO.

A PIECE INSIDE THE SHIFTER BROKE AND MADE THE CAR STALL. IT BASICALLY WOULDN'T MOVE WHILE I WAS ON A BUSY ROAD.

FIRST WIPERS STOPPED WORKING CONSISTENTLY THEN TRUNK AND DOOR LOCKS WOULDN'T RESPOND TO FOB AND TRUNK CAN'T BE OPENED.

THE WIRING HARNESS GETS CRIMPED WHEN IT GOES FROM THE MAIN BODY OF THE CAR INTO THE HATCH CREATING SHORTS AND MALFACTION OF ELECTRIC COMPONENTS. AS, DOES THE REAR WIPER HOSE. WHICH LEAKS AND EMPTIES INTO THE WIRING HARNESS. THIS HAPPENS EVERYWHERE, AT ALL TIMES.

BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE ON OCT 19TH 2019 WHILE DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION SKIPPED SEVERAL TIMES THIS IS A 2012 500 POP MODEL FIAT AUTOMATIC. .AFRAID TO DRIVE FAST FEAR OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE ,SPECIALLY NOTICABLE WHEN GOING UP A GRADE AND WHEN DEPRESSING FUEL PEDAL TO PASS .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FIAT 500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LICENSE PLATE BULB WAS OUT AND THE LIFTGATE DID NOT OPEN MANUALLY.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED.

POWER STEERING FAILURE WITH STEERING WHEEL TURNING ON IT'S OWN. WHEN THE POWER STEERING IS ABOUT TO FAIL, IT PULLS THE WHEEL BEFORE GOING INTO STIFF, MANUAL STEERING. ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS WHILE TRYING TO REGAIN CONTROL. I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE VEHICLE PARKED AFTERWARDS, STILL RUNNING AND THE WHEEL SPINNING ON IT'S OWN. SCARY. I READ A FIAT OWNERS BLOG WHERE MANY PEOPLE WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. ISSUE SEEMS TO BE WHEN IN MOTION AND WHEN STILL. I WILL TRY TO UPLOAD THE VIDEO I TOOK OF THE WHEEL SPINNING ON IT'S OWN, IT SAYS IMAGE OR DOCUMENT, SO MAY HAVE TO SEND AFTER SUBMISSION OF THIS COMPLAINT. THIS ISSUE STARTED IN EARLY 2018 INTERMITTENTLY HOWEVER NOW IS A REGULAR ISSUE. 10/9/2019 ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON THE 5 FWY.

OIL PRESURE LIGHT COMES ON SAYING STOP TURN ENGINE OFF LOW IOL PRESSURE AFTER I DRIVE IT FOR ABOUT 10 MINS I GUESS AFTER IT GET HOT. THEN CHEXK ENGINE LIGGT COMES WITH IT. OTHER PEOPLE HAS AND ARE GOING THREW THE SAME THING WITH 2012 FIAT 509 SPORTS. ITS ALL OVER THE YOU TUBE WHY IS THIS HAPPING. I REPLACE OIL PRESURE SENSOR AND CHANGED MY OIL SAME THING IT DIDNT CHANGE ANYTHING ASKING FOR A RECALL ON THE OIL PUM OR WHAT IS CAUSING THIS. PLUS IT MAKEA A SOUND AFTER DRIVING AT THE SAME TIME IT SHOWS UP WHILE PUSHING GAS PEDAL

2012 FIAT POP WITH 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. MANUAL TRANSMISSION MAY LEAK OIL FROM CASE SEAM AND AT HALF SHAFT SEALS. FIAT DEALERSHIP REPLACED FIRST TRANSMISSION AFTER 600 MILES. LEAKING AGAIN AT 30,000 MILES. OIL IS SLUNG FROM INNER CV JOINT BOOTS INTO ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND ONTO GROUND. THIS COULD CREATE HAZARDS OF FIRE FROM HOT EXHAUST, LOSS OF TRACTION FROM OIL ON ROAD SURFACE. FIAT REFUSES TO DEAL WITH PROBLEM AFTER SECOND ROUND AND DEALERSHIP FUMBLING REPAIR. STILL HAVE LEAKS, COMPROMISED TRANSMISSION ...UNSAFE CAR.

WHEN STOPPED AT A FUEL FILLING STATION THE CAR WOULD NOT TAKE IN ANY FUEL FROM THE GAS STATION PUMP AS USUAL. IT REACTS LIKE THE TANK IS FULL BUT IT IS NOT. A VERY SMALL STEADY FLOW OF FUEL WILL FLOW AND FILL WHEN THE NOZZLE IS ENGAGED AS SUCH. THE DANGEROUS PROBLEM IS THAT THE GAS PUMP 'AUTOMATIC STOP' DOES NOT ENGAGE AND FUEL RUNS OUT OF THE FILLER AREA AND DOES NOT STOP UNTIL YOU MANUALLY PULL OUT THE NOZZLE. THE FIAT DEALER SAYS IT COULD BE THE ROLLOVER VALVE AND THEY HAVE SEEN IT HAPPEN BEFORE. THEY WANT TO CHARGE FOR SERVICE/INSPECTION, THEN REPAIRS. SOME DEALERS CHARGE FOR A NEW FUEL TANK @ $1200-1600 AND IT STILL HAPPENS. ONLINE CHATS REGARDING FIAT 500 ALSO DESCRIBE THIS ROLLOVER VALVE PROBLEM. MY CAR HAS 48,000 MILES AND IS A 2012.

A FEW WEEKS AGO, I WOKE UP AND DROVE TO WORK IN THE MORNING. MY FIAT PARKED, I WORKED, EVERYTHING WAS GOOD. 5 HOURS LATER, I GET BACK TO MY CAR TO DRIVE HOME. I START MY ENGINE AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP SAYING, "HILL START ERROR ... SEE OWNERS MANUAL". I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, "WELP, L GUESS I'LL GO SEE A MECHANIC NOW.". I LIFT THE E-BREAK, PRESS DOWN THE BREAK PEDAL, AND THEN TRY TO MOVE THE CAR INTO REVERSE, BUT IT'S LOCKED IN PARK. I TURN OFF THE CAR. I USE GOOGLE SEARCH ON MY PHONE TO FIND MY FIAT 500 OWNER'S MANUAL ONLINE. I LOOK FOR THE "HILL START ERROR" AND FIND AN OVERRIDE TO GET MY CAR OUT OF PARK AND INTO REVERSE/DRIVE. I RESTART THE CAR. NOW THE DASHBOARD IS COMPLETELY BLANK EXCEPT FOR THE LETTER 'P' IN THE BOTTOM-CENTER OF THE CIRCULAR DASH PANEL. THE LETTER "P" IS BLINKING CONCURRENTLY WITH A BEEP THAT DOES NOT STOP. THERE IS NO MEASURE OF SPEED AND I'M NOT ENTIRELY SURE IF MY LIGHTS ARE WORKING AT THIS POINT. I'M JUST TRYING TO GET THE CAR TO A MECHANIC ABOUT 10 MILES AWAY. I FOUND AN HONEST-FAMILY SPOT AND THE GUY TELLS ME TO LEAVE THE CAR THERE AND HE'LL LOOK AT IT. BREAK LIGHTS WERE OUT AND A SAFETY FEATURE CAUSED IT TO LOCK UP. A COMMON ISSUE IS A BREAK-LIGHT SWITCH WITH THIS CAR, SO... WE REPLACED THE BLS AND DID A FULL DIAGNOSTICS, BUT STILL NO FIX. WE TROUBLESHOOT ALL WEEK AND FOUND THAT A 5-AMP FUSE BLEW OUT IN THE BODY CONTROL MODULE. HE REPLACED THE FUSE AND FOUND THAT IT BURNED OUT AGAIN BECAUSE OF A LOOSE WIRE SOMEWHERE BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. IF I

I DROVE DOWN FROM IL TO WI WITH MY FIAT POP 500 2012 ON HIGHWAY 39 AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY TO MY DESTINATION, MY SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED (BOOM!) ALONG WITH LOUD NOISE. I DUCKED DOWN AND ALL THE SUNROOF GLASSES WAS SHATTERED AND FELL OFF ONTO MY HEAD, MY LAPS AND MOSTLY WENT FALLING DOWN ON THE FRONT OF PASSENGER SEAT. THIS WAS HAPPENING ON A CLEAR SUMMER SUNNY DAY, ON FRIDAY, JUNE 28TH OF 2019. THERE'S NO FOREIGN OBJECTS, THERE'S NOT A LOT (CONGESTED) OF TRAFFICS, THERE'S NO ANY SEMI TRUCKS AROUND ME NOR THE BAD WEATHER OR ANY DISTRACTIONS WHATSOEVER. IT WAS AROUND 6:10 PM LOCAL TIME AND IT IS ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY FROM MY FINAL DESTINATION TO MADISON, WI. THE WEATHER WAS AROUND 81 - 79 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, VERY CLEAR SKY, NO RAIN, NO WET ROAD.NICE AND DRY SUMMER TIME TO DRIVE, NORMAL BREEZE.SKY ARE ALL CLEAR AND SUNNY. WEATHER: 8 HUMIDITY: 62%, BAROMETER: 30.06 HG, AND SE WINDS CONDITION: 6.214 MPH. AS A WOMEN WHO COMPLETELY DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT CARS EXCEPT TOOK MY CAR TO THE AUTO SHOP FOR REGULAR OIL CHANGE, THIS WAS VERY SCARY TO ME - COMPLETELY RELYING ON MY SAFETY WITH THE CAR THAT I OWN AND I DRIVE EVERYDAY, AND THIS ACCIDENT DEFINITELY MADE ME REALIZED THAT FIAT POP 500 IT IS NOT A SAFE TO BE DRIVE FOR ANYONE PERIOD. THE SUNROOF THAT ALL OF THE SUDDEN SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED WITH NO VALID REASON WHATSOEVER AND THERE'S NO WARNING FROM FIAT THAT COULD BE PART OF THEIR DEFECT IN THIS TYPE OF CAR IT'S VERY DANGEROUS FOR ANYBODY EVENT TO CONSIDER P

I TOOK MY CAR FOR INSPECTION. DEALER INFORMED ME THAT LICENSE PLATE LIGHT FAILED. BULB COULD NOT BE REPLACED. I HAD TO REPLACE WHOLE TAILGATE ASSEMBLY FOR $500 JUST FOR THE NEW BULB. NEW ASSEMBLY THEY PUT IN NOW HAS A REPLACEABLE BULB.

AT TIMES, CONSTANT, SOMETIMES INTERMITTENT, WARNING 'AIRBAG FAILURE.' HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. THIS IS APPARENTLY A COMMON PROBLEM AND FROM WHAT OTHERS HAVE FOUND, INVOLVES THE WIRING HARNESS TO AIRBAG.

SHIFTER CABLE AT TRANSMISSION LINKAGE BROKEN. WILL NOT SHIFT GEARS. VEHICLE WAS PARKED/TURNED OFF AT GAS PUMP. TURNED VEHICLE ON AND WOULD NOT GET OUT OF PARK/SHIFT GEARS. TOW TRUCK DRIVER TRIED BYPASS THE 'PARK' TO PUT VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL TO BE TOWED AND WAS NOT ABLE TO.

I BOUGHT THE CAR 2 YEARS AGO AND DRIVEN IT WITHOUT ANY ISSUES UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT SHOWED. BEING IN TRAFFIC AND IN THE RAIN, I DID DRIVE MY CAR HOME.
