About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Our FIAT was rear-ended on October 20. My wife suffered multiple critical injuries. The accident occurred in Manatee County Florida. I have the accident report, a picture of the vehicle, and a reported recall of the vehicle for a seat problem that took place in Australia. There has been no recall in the U.S. I will upload the relevant documents. The company reports the front seat-??s guide tracks may not comply to safety standards do to a manufacturing fault. If the guide tracks are faulty, the seat could suddenly shift backwards or forwards during a crash, which poses an increased risk of injury.

2015 Fiat 500. Driver side window failed due to broken lift plate at 37,561 miles. Now the passenger side fails at 40,001 miles. Dealer claims not under warranty, no tsb, 'silent warranty' and says the windows typically fail on a 4 to 5 year old car.

Arm rest snapped apart while driver was adjusting seating position with elbow on the arm rest. There is a now sharp metal bar protruding from the plastic into the driver elbow area. Chrysler/Fiat dealership said this defect was not covered under warranty and would cost $182 to repair. This seems like a minor safety issue that should definitely be covered under the Fiat warranty.
