Delays with diesels?

Hi

Was meant to be picking up my diesel 500 tomorrow but have now been told there's some technical problems with the diesels and they're all being checked at some "holding centre". Apologies if there's a thread about this somewhere but am very miffed that my weekend has been spoiled cos I won't have my gorgeous new car!

Anyone else been told the same thing and if so, been told how long the delay might be?

Thanks

Hi LucyP.
The delays on the affected diesels is unfortunate. Atleast it seems Fiat are on top of it though.

Sorry but I can't access this page for some reason
it says I haven't got permission?

What is going on? as I am expecting mine anytime soon & haven't heard anything from the dealer.

Linked thread has been removed for various reasons.

If your looking for info on your car give your salesman a call and ask. He is the only person who can give you information on how you order is coming along.
