“When going from median into hwy in 2nd gear,no warning car dies will not start back. Figured it was recall on clutch said they checked it and that it was good but valves were bent and needed a new head. Still won't start but now they are back to clutch/transmission. They have had my car 7 weeks and never restarted it. I had purchased the vehicle and drove it maybe 3 months wasn't even time for an oil change, under 40,000 miles. Was told great vechile only traded due to pregnancy. Ya, right. …”

“I bought a 2014 Fiat 500l model from the dealership. I've driven it less than 1000 miles. I was at starbucks waiting for my order when it started smoking and it smelled like it going to start burning. The car had been stationary. It was a nauseating smell. Luckily, my boyfriend was in the car. He's a mechanic, so he was able to tell me that it was the clutch. Dropped it off at the dealer. It's at the dealer and I'm not sure how long it will be there. The guy at the front said, that it was normal and nothing would be wrong with the car. …”

“2014, Fiat 500 l pop, hatchback , automatic since I bought this car in feb 2015, with 12,000 miles on it, I've had the following problem.

This condition can cause a fatal accident on a busy highway. I have taken it to the Fiat service station numerous time since the problem was detected. They have changed the transmission, reprogrammed various modules and the problem still remains. …”

Also, they told me that there were no other similar complaints ever made to Fiat-chrysler. …”

While doing so, the car acted the same way. …”
