After bringing vehicle to a complete stop at a traffic light, it died and gave a propulsion system warning. After about 20 attempts to turn off and reboot the vehicle, it restarted and behaved as if nothing had happened. This was a very dangerous situation with the vehicle stuck in the middle of the road. There have been two recalls on this very specific issue (and this vehicle has had that related software updates). Vehicle did the exact same behavior for no reason. (NHTSA campaign: 16V303000 & 15V179000). And because the vehicle wasn't sold in Georgia, no local dealers know how to work on it.

Many different things have gone wrong with this car starting at the first 900 miles. The cluster that shows you speed and RPM went out at 900 miles while driving home from work making it hard to drive. It took the dealership two weeks to fix this problem. A couple months after this the check engine light came on for no reason, the dealership told me that there was nothing wrong and gave it back to me. Two weeks later the check engine light came on again and then they said that there was a problem with something related to the cluster. They had my car for a week this time while they repaired this problem. Six months later a generic light came on that something was wrong with the car, I brought it in and again they said there was nothing wrong with my car. A year after I purchased it the daytime running lights went out and I started getting a warning to check them, they said this wasn't covered and would not replace them. At about 65,000 miles my head lights burned out while I was driving and I had to drive 70 miles at night with no headlights on the freeway. I replaced these myself for $60. Then three months later my headlights stopped working again. The lights weren't burnt out but they were loose and I had to jiggle them to get them back. At the same time they had a recall on the clutch and it took them a year to get the parts and repair the recall at 66,751 miles. Now at 74,500 miles the clutch has completely gone out while I was driving. Luckily I had just got to my destination and left it parked in a parking lot. The dealership wants to charge me $3,300 to fix the clutch. The car is only worth $6600 and I owe $13000. Also I have tried to trade it in and no one will take it due to all the problems these cars have. Fiat should be banned from selling these cars until they stop turning out crappy cars.

On several occasions, my car has suddenly revved up to 6000 RPM, start jerking and revving up; and a random error will pop up on the dash. When this happens, if you let off of the break the car will automatically speed up to 40 mph without pushing the gas pedal down. Sometimes it will happen while driving, and sometimes it will start as soon as the car is started. It doesn't matter what kind of road the car is on. Sometimes the car just jerks and displays an error. The most predominant error is "ESC off no hill start". sometimes it says "coolant temp high". I have taken it to the dealership several times and every time I do they say they are unable to "retrieve an active code off of the computer or duplicate the problem." One time, they replaced the computer in the car because they read high voltage coming off of one of the circuits, but the problem continued after that. My wife recorded a video once where it counted down from 3 to 1 and then suddenly revved up. She also showed different videos that she had made of it at different times to the dealership and they just flat out said they didn't know what was going on.

The contact owns a 2015 Fiat 500. The contact stated that the vehicle shifted out of drive into neutral when the electrical system overheated. The contact was able to move onto the road shoulder, restart the engine, and the vehicle resumed normal operation after the engine cooled down. The dealer advised the contact to shift the gear into neutral manually when the burning odor emitted or they could reprogram the electrical system; however, it would not permanently correct the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 17,000.

Fiat 500 abarth 2015 after driving the car for about 30 min. I parked the car and after returning to leave I started the car backing out of parking space and the engine just died.

The engine light was on but not blinking. I decided to remove the gas cap and put it back on. The engine light stayed on for about a day and then went out.
