What the FIAT records can tell us
Our FIAT database covers 3 nameplates: 124 Spider, 500, 500X. Across 17 model-year entries, it contains 376 owner complaints. We do not know how many vehicles were on the road, so the count cannot tell us the share of vehicles with reported problems.
Electrical System appears most often among the tagged components, with 97 mentions. A single complaint may name several components. Check that system's contract terms, while keeping in mind that the count does not show how likely a repair is.
Across the same model years, NHTSA records show 32 recall campaigns and 1,571 manufacturer communications. Recall repairs are handled separately from a paid service contract, while communications include far more than defects.
