Is there a recall on 500 with a clutch issue?

Hubby was on Facebook owners (although its my car) and saw this pop up

Recall 500 manufactured from June 21 2010 to May 16 2016.

I have a Vintage57.
He called our dealers who didnt could not help. The phone number reception supplied for Fiat UK does not appear to be working.

Anyone have any more details?
He is worried.
My car is still in warranty but not for much longer.
 
There certainly isn't an official DVSA recall for this.

I'd have expected we'd have heard more about this if the issue was as widespread as suggested by the date range you've quoted. You'd need to check with Fiat, but I'm wondering if this is fake news?

A list of all the 500 recalls that have been notified to DVSA since launch is attached.

More then likely a few people have had clutch fail early due to owners riding the clutch

Complained about it on Facebook and a few people said they hasld the same issue so are now demanding a recall in them

Saw same last week because 3-4 people in the group had issues with gearbox bearings failing so they were saying there's obviously a widespread issue and fiat should recall every single car
 
Thanks I thought he was getting paranoid.

I stay off those sort of Facebook pages, thats why I thought if there was anything, the club or the forum would know.
No disrespect to those on here that may be admin on Facebook, but it the 'others'.
