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.

When trying to pump gas in car, it would take about 10 mins to pump one gallon and it would shut off constantly. In other words, when squeezing the pump, it would put a few drops and cut off and it would continuously do this. The problems was the roller over shut off valve was stuck and the solution was to get a whole new tank.

Hitting the rollover valve can release the shut off valve until it screws up again.

We are getting engine stalls while driving now.
