Hi everyone and anyone who uses this forum.
I have had a fiat punto 1.9JTD 52 plate for a couple of years and although it has very high milage (last owner was an on call Doctor!) it has always been problem free, except for now!
I have two ongoing problems that local mechanics seem unable to fix.
1, the Airbag light has come on approx 3 weeks ago and will not go off, my local mechanic says not to worry about it but friends who are fellow punto owners tell me they had a similar problem where the result involved going to a registered fiat mechanic and paying a fortune for diagnostic checks etc to solve the problem!
2, my headlights keep blowing. On average I am having to change them monthly and I rarely use the car at night. Oddly when one goes and I change it the other seems to go almost immeadiatly, any link?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated and if you haven't already guessed I know nothing about cars!
have a nice day
Joe
