Last night I went to go out in my car I put the key in and turned it and it struggled for roughly 10 seconds at most then eventually started and started beeping at me and flashing up check engine! I have taken the car to fiat today and there is not a lot they can do unless it does it again, has anyone else had this happen?

In the first week of me having mine I had a similar problem, within about 5 minutes of starting the car and driving off, it started beeping and saying “Check Engine” took it straight to the dealership and it was apparently to do with the “Start Stop” system. They fixed it there and then and I have not had that problem again.
 
Ah ok it could be sumin to do with that because ive had problems with my stop start

did they not put it on examiner and check for stored codes?

He said he couldn't do anything unless it does it again but if it does it again i gotta call him and he'll come and take the car! Its booked in for thursday anyway because of the stop start!
 
yeah i had this, just turned off and started again, it went.

the car picked up a faulty sensor, so will auto tell you soemthings wrong, if it stays on after a restart take it to the dealer.
 
Doesn't sound right at all. Mine has never had this problem, even when left for a period unused.

You've also posted about the Start&stop on your car, perhaps these are related?

Blo*dy hell, you'd think after the time it's taken for it to arrive, they might've put the thing together half decently. I'd only give this dealer Thursday to try & fix it, then go elsewhere because they clearly seem beyond useless.

Fiat need to get their arses in gear with these Evo's and stop letting silly little faults getting through to the customer. Many of the problem posts are things experienced by several people (cubby holes not fitting, Stop/Start issues) & really should be sorted as soon as one or two people report them, not 1 or 2 thousand people.
 
Hmm yeah i will see what happens on thursday. I love the car but im very disappointed with the state of the car! i shouldn't be having problems already. Plus my side skirt had lost a bracket which i musta picked it up like it because the next morning when parking it i noticed this!!
