CarComplaints.com Notes: Considering sales numbers and data that monitors complaints-per-make, there appears to be an unusually high number of issues with the 2012 Fiat 500. Perhaps that isn't surprising -- it is the first model year of the car, and those tend to have a higher incidence rate.

Of particular concern is the number of engine and powertrain complaints submitted to NHTSA.

The main recline levers on the top of the driver and passenger seats gradually lose the ability to recline the seats forward for access to rear seating. Was fixed once but eventually failed again after a few months.
