- VIN: ZFBCFXAB5JP
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: THE Transmission Valve Body Solenoid was diagnosed as not working. while i was driving on the highway without any indication the car just started slowing down . There was not a warning or anything, then the transmission service lights up, i had to have my car towed to a dealership however they informed me that there was never any service they were supposed to do on my transmission because of the type of vehicle i have. this part is expensive and not easily obtainable. car is still showing transmission issue.
POWER TRAIN,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-12-16
- VIN: ZFBCFXAB2JP
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ENGINE
- Summary: I purchased my 2018 Fiat 500X POP used in April 2023 with only 22k miles. This past weekend 12/16 when I would first start my car up and get ready to leave in the mornings after having been parked for the night, my car would start up normal and I could proceed down the street. The minute I apply the break my car would lose power, stall out or shut off completely. I would press the start button, release the break, shift the gear to drive and proceed forward. I would go about 20 mph as I was driving in a residential area then my car would stall out and shut off again leaving stuck in the roadway. I repeated the start process to pull over to a safe location. I called the dealer and they said there are no recalls for this issue, however, I located one, but my VIN is not coming back as one of the affected vehicles. This is extremely dangerous as I live in an area with freeways as the only way to get to certain areas and cannot have this vehicle shutdown on freeways because it could result in a bad accident. I am looking for any assistance I can receive from this complaint. Fiat is not helpful, and the closest dealer is 2hrs from my residence.
POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-08-31
- VIN: ZFBCFXAB6JP
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: There is an active recall for the power train control module for this car but it is not showing up in the NHTSA list. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2018/RCRIT-18V524-1313.pdf identifies the specific recall for the powertrain control module for the Fiat 500X https://www.nhtsa.gov/vehicle/2018/FIAT/500X/SUV/2WD#recalls lists the recalls done for the vehicle and it does not list the powertrain control module recall issue. We just bought this car from CARMAX and looks like this campaign recall fix was not listed on the site so they didn't address it and now the car wont work or run. If the recall was listed by the VIN they would have been required to fix before selling.
ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2022-11-15
- VIN: ZFBCFXCB7JP
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: I purchased my vehicle in 2020. I was not aware there was an open recall on this vehicle for an oil consumption issue. The dealer did not tell me and I received no notice from Fiat/Chrysler over the next two years. I began having a problem with the engine cutting out as I was driving down the road without any warning. There were no low oil or engine lights coming on to let me know there was a problem. My car was literally stopping on the road as I was driving! The potential for disaster was high! Fortunately we were able to get the car to the dealer without incident. We actually found out about the recall through our own investigation. The car was 3.5 quarts low and has since had two oil consumption tests that were supposed to "fix" the problem. It is now July 2023 and am still dealing with the car burning oil at a rate of about 1.5 quarts every 1500 miles. I have a 2018 Fiat 500X with less than 40,000 miles on the engine. Currently my dealership and I are trying to get Fiat/Chrysler to replace my engine . They have agreed that under the extended warranty afforded to me through the class action lawsuit filed against them over this that I am eligible for this to repair damage done. Unfortunately we are having issues getting authorization for an engine to be ordered..a lot of bureaucracy! The whole process has been infuriating..and I do think that my safety as a driver has been compromised. Thank you.

After owning my 500x Trekking Plus for over a year now, I can confidently say that I love it even more. It has served us well, and we've gone on several road trips and even started a new business with it (Online Antiques and a booth in Vero Beach). Fiat is a great value, and it gets a bad rap due to its connection to Mopar. However, in my year of owning the car, the only thing that failed was a Chrysler-sourced MOPAR design fan assembly that Fiat (FCA) took care of immediately. My experience with the dealer's customer service was above par, and FCA was great. They told me it was imperative to get the car back into the dealer, and they had the car for three weeks (due to parts delay), but they rented another car for me, and I paid nothing. So, my Fiat has been 100% reliable, except for the American part that failed. But she is back running better than ever, and I have no complaints. Due to an unknown injury, I came down with severe sciatica in my left leg and hip. My doctor said it was probably exacerbated by twisting in and out of my low-to-the-ground 2013 Mazda MX5. So, I was on the hunt for something that was easy to get into. By far, and I have owned 25 cars now in my lifetime as a 55-year-old man, the Fiat 500 X is the most comfortable car I have ever driven. Plus, even after having Mercedes and BMWs, I find its electronics, infotainment system, and build quality superior. Fiat is right up there with Mazda in their top-of-the-line cars, giving consumers the most bang for the buck you can possibly get for under 30,000. Even a basic Fiat comes with creature comforts that you don't see in other cars, like fully automatic headlamps. Such a minor thing, but a nicety nonetheless.My Fiat 500 X Trekking Plus is top-of-the-line and is only missing one option, the all-wheel-drive feature. Unfortunately, it's next to impossible to get in Florida for some reason, and none of the dealers are ordering it. But never mind, my car comforts me with the heated seats, leather, cornering lamps (which are amazing, like personal luxury cars of yesteryear), dual pane panoramic sunroof, Beats stereo, navigation, back up cam, crash sonar...omg the list goes on! It's going to take me probably two weeks to figure out how to operate every single feature this car has. And with all the geegaws comes a glass smooth ride with none of that herky-jerky transmission stuff that other people talk about, and the solid feel that you get when you shut a BMW door...that wonderful muffled thunk. Plus, my dealer extends the warranty to 10 years 100,000 miles! I think that Fiat is undervalued, and this car is a game changer for the Fiat brand in America. I want to address some of the bad reviews this car gets. In reading them, I find the people who write negative comments about the car's transmission, hesitation, etc. are probably bad drivers or have expectations that could not be met by a crossover. In owning my car and having driven several others in its class, the Fiat 500x offers the best value. For instance, the 500x Trekking Plus has a power seat, the Mazda CX3 doesn't. It's not available. The CX3 gets praise from auto journalists, but it's based on the old Mazda 2 which was a dog and sold poorly. So much for objectivity, the Mazda 2 has been dropped. Also, to write a review based on simply driving a rental should not be allowed! Rental cars get beat to Hades and back. The 500x takes getting used to. I had to learn how the electric parking brake works; it's not the most intuitive thing. But the 500x truly is a fun, well-built rig.

I came across an ad for this car early last year and it was love at first sight. However, it wasn't going to be available for a few more months which was a bummer. Finally, it was released and I took it out for a few test drives. I waited for reviews from other buyers, but it took forever and there weren't many out there. I was a bit scared because the reviews that were available weren't very positive. I've always owned Honda's, so I was hesitant and test drove other vehicles. I tried the Honda HRV, but it seemed very cheap to me. I kept searching the inventory for my little Fiat. I wanted a white lounge model with black leather seats and a sunroof. They had them within 50 miles of me, but by the time I got more serious about finally going and getting it, of course, they didn't have any within 200 miles of me that had the sunroof. So, mine doesn't have the sunroof, but that's okay. I was kind of worried about the mesh that's up there anyway because the sunlight comes into the car a little too much. The lady I spoke to at one of the dealerships said you could tint the sunroof, but I also thought that the mesh will eventually deteriorate. Anyhow, I got a fantastic deal on mine and I absolutely love it! I think I will name it Marshmallow, my 20-year-old daughter's idea. I've had my baby since February and I haven't had any real issues with it. The one thing is when you lock the doors with the button outside, sometimes you have to press it a few times. The transmission is a little tetchy and not real quick off the line, but that's okay I guess. Fewer tickets, right? I was worried it wouldn't get up hills very well, but it does just fine. The seats are super comfortable. Another reviewer mentioned the cool gas cap, but there isn't one, yay! You just open the door and boom, you stick the nozzle in and you can't just stick anything in there either, so you don't have to worry about people stealing your gas.I was a bit hesitant about getting this car (even though I really wanted it). I was worried because it's a Fiat and not a Honda. But now, every day when I go outside and see my little baby, I'm so glad I got it!

I have a bit of a bias towards the Fiat brand, having owned a 128 Sport Coupe in the 70s and currently a 2012 500 Abarth. The 500x was something I was interested in, but I had to do a little convincing to get my wife on board. We traded in her uncomfortable Jeep Wrangler Sport, and we were both happy to say goodbye to it. Moving into the 500x, we did sacrifice a little space, but aside from that, we really love this vehicle. The ride is comfortable, the handling is precise, the acceleration is adequate, and it's an absolute treat to drive. That's one thing about my Fiats that sets them apart from all the other vehicles we've owned - they're just plain fun to drive! As of 02/06/2018, this vehicle has only gotten better with age, and we still enjoy all aspects of it very much.

I've been really pleased with this car. The ride is excellent - quiet and smooth. The gas mileage is great, and the power and handling are fantastic! It feels like I'm driving a sports car. I'm glad the computer has a setting to notify you about your speed. I have mine set for 10 miles above the limit, and it always reminds me, as it's easy to lose track of how fast you're going. You can't feel it shifting, except when you first start out, as it's a little hesitant. The interior is comparable to cars that are much more expensive. The materials used and fit and finish are excellent. My only complaint is that Fiat needs to market this car through their Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler dealers, and service them there as well, or at the very least, require Alfa/Maserati dealers to service them under warranty. I live in a fairly large metropolitan city, and I have to drive 60 to 75 miles to the closest dealer for warranty work. I only wish I drove more, but I work from home...

I purchased my Fiat 500X on February 24th, 2016 and it has been a great little SUV so far! I have driven about 2500 miles and have not experienced any problems. It rides smoothly and is easy to get in and out of due to its higher seating position. I love the unique style of the car and have received many compliments on it while filling up at gas stations. Previously, I owned a Subaru Crosstrek but unfortunately, after an accident, I could not afford another one. The Fiat 500X was a great alternative and felt very similar to my previous car. Although I eventually traded it in for another Crosstrek in August 2016, I do miss my Fiat. While the value may not have been there for me, I did not have any issues with the car itself. I would definitely recommend considering a Fiat 500X, but ultimately the decision is up to the individual. Personally, I am a fan of Subarus, but I do appreciate the convenience of having a closer Fiat dealership. Thank you for considering my experience!

I bought my Fiat 500X Trek a few weeks ago and unfortunately experienced a breakdown during my drive home from the dealer. It shut off at 40 mph and was difficult to start afterwards. I followed my salesperson's advice and took it to the service department the next day, with the engine light on for the entire trip. The service tech explained that the computer was reading fault codes and self-correcting as it learns. Although this conclusion made me uneasy, I trusted my service manager's advice and left with instructions to return if any further problems arose. Later that day, I stopped for a soda and when I attempted to restart my vehicle, it wouldn't start. After several attempts, I called the service department back to report my problem, but was only able to leave a message. After waiting 20 minutes for their call back, I was able to start the motor successfully, but the engine light remained on and the car seemed to be running out of tune with little power. The service department finally returned my call and instructed me to return the vehicle again, which I did the very next day and was awarded a rental car. After about 8 days, I was advised that my Fiat had a new onboard body computer module installed and that it was fine and ready for pick up. I finally made my first successful trip home with this car. However, the very next day, the vehicle became difficult to start and remained in 3rd gear at all times, with the engine light on. So, again, I called the service department and was advised to have the vehicle towed, which I did with the assistance of the Fiat Roadside Assistance and a local towing service, and was awarded another rental vehicle. After several days, I was advised that there was a loose/corroded ground wire on the side of my transmission, which was repaired, and my vehicle was ready for pick up.I had a few issues with my vehicle in the past, but thankfully everything has been resolved. Although there were some unexpected shutdowns while driving, the service department was able to fix the problem. The staff were very helpful and did their best to assist me during the process. I'm happy to say that my new Fiat has been running smoothly for a couple of years now, with only minor issues such as the trim coming off. Overall, I'm satisfied with my experience and would recommend this line of cars to others.Leaving a very sticky substance underneath that seems to get on everything can be very annoying and make things look ugly. However, it starts and goes. I wouldn't purchase another one though. Good luck!

I named my Fiat 500x Bambino and it's been a great drive! The acceleration, especially in sport mode, is awesome and the shifting is smooth. However, during the summers, the a/c vents are few and the circulation is poor, making it a bit uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I've had some issues with my car breaking down three times in the last three years, which is a shame. I'm currently searching for a new vehicle. It's important to be careful when driving in heavy rains as it may cause some issues. Overall, I've had a good experience with my Fiat 500x, but it's time for me to move on to something new.
Issac Lockman 2024-06-24
I have been asked to update my review. While I still hold the same opinion that the car has stalled out a couple of times after warming up and is very sluggish, I would like to add that the gas mileage is okay but not as good as my Chevrolet HHR. Therefore, I still do not recommend this car to anyone. Additionally, I noticed that my girlfriend was uncomfortable during the ride and I found myself apologizing for the ride of the car.
Wallace Watsica 2024-06-06
Firstly, I am sorry to hear about the issues you have experienced with your car. It sounds like you have had a difficult time with it. From what you have described, it seems like there have been a few recalls on the car since you purchased it. I can understand how frustrating this must be for you, especially with the safety concerns you have mentioned. Additionally, it is unfortunate that the tires blew out after only four months and that there was no spare in the car. I can imagine how inconvenient that must have been for you. Regarding the oil leak, it is concerning that the levels were low after a recent oil change. I hope that the dealership can determine the cause of this issue and resolve it for you. It is also unfortunate that you have had trouble with the keyless remote and the gas mileage has not met your expectations. I hope that Fiat can address these issues and provide a satisfactory resolution for you. Thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention, and we will do our best to assist you in resolving these issues.

This car has unfortunately experienced some issues, and despite multiple visits to the dealership for service, the problem has not yet been resolved. It is frustrating that FCA has not taken action to address these known issues.
