Car continues to have problems 3/2/15 car stalled months following purchase of the car new told it was a issue with the cold temps and battery was not swapped upon arrival in us. Months later 11/17/15 the call began to stall again in heavy traffic and told a recall was issued and he car needed to be updated and it will correct the issue. Car immediately started to stall 12/17/15 and back in the shop did not identify issue until 12/26/15 and told the issue was control module 9/9/17 car started to stall again did not identify issue. 10/26/17 stalling again did not identify issue be believe dealer had recall. December 2018 call stalling issues occurred more frequently and in January code stated control module was failing again. 6/1/2018 complained to Fiat about inexperienced service techs. 11/2/18 car brought to dealer for service, rotation and inspection checks. 12/7/18 car is not driving properly learned today one brake pad of all installed worn down completely while others are at 10. Very concern with only 26K miles on car Fiat lack of response to consumer to resolve the car concerns. Service advisor informed me the tech decided the tires did not rotate tires which caused the brake inspection to be overlooked. Very concern consumers pay for additional service Fiat does not perform and brake issue could have been identified and now 6 days out of warranty. Consumer foot the bill.

I pulled into a parking lot at 10mph. I attempted to stop the car to park. The brake jammed and the engine revved.I repeatedly pressed on the brake and it would not go down.it was a very small enclosed parking lot and not much space to move. I hit the parking barrier causing damage to the front end because there was no where else to go.radiator fluid poured out of the vehicle. My mother was with me in the car and witnessed this accident. She drove the car to a close auto mechanic as I was distraught. I am afraid to drive this car.

While stopped in traffic in the middle lane of rt. 50 E in annapolis md, I put the car into park. The car became consumed with a strong burning odor. As traffic began to move, I shifted into drive, stepped on the gas pedal and there was no response and the oil light came on briefly. Since the car had begun to roll forward, I put my foot on the brake and there was no response. I pulled the emergency brake and put the car into park and turned on the hazard lights. Traffic began to get back to speed but I was broken down in the middle lane, blocking traffic. I called the state police for assistance, and the car was eventually safely towed to the dealer, johnson Fiat of annapolis. The dealer had the car for 4 working days and said they could not find anything wrong with it, that they drove it for 60 miles and the problem could not be duplicated. The repair invoice notes " no warning lights on as of now, could not duplicate complaint from customer. Took car for multiple test drives, no sign of brake failure, not running poorly, car just has a horrible burning smell". I accepted the car and it seems to be fine although I have lost all confidence in its safety while driving it.

This car has totally inconsistent brakes. I don't know if they are "brake-by-wire" electronics, but I'd bet so, and there probably needs to be a software upgrade. They cannot be modulated normally. They grab and slam themselves at one instant and the next are smooth and easy. Jerks you around without warning. There is just simply a flaw and the dealer says "they are all like that",and "we hear that a lot", but there is "nothing to be done".
