Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has had a problem with the rear door of their Fiat 500 Lounge Twin Air?
We have had the car since March and done less than 2000 miles. We've noticed on a number of occasions that the rear door does not close properly. You close it, then get in and drive off and then a light on the dashboard indicates that a door is open. You stop, get out and close it, quite inconvenient.
Unfortunately for us, this happened again last week, where the rear door did not lock properly and we drove over a speed bump and under a height restrictor. You can guess what happened next!
The door sprung open and smashed into the height restrictor, smashing the glass and damaging the rear windscreen wiper - Approx £440 of damage.
Initially The Fiat dealer service department said they would fix it under a warranty claim but now Fiat have said no, they 'don't believe it happened that way' insinuating we are lying and that we must have reversed into something!
Has anyone else had a problem the rear door not closing properly?
Thanks
Doug
