General Fiat 600 2025

[Lou68]

I recently have bought a Fiat 600 2025 , had no issues apart from this morning when using the automatic gearbox from parking to drive a warning light triggered on the dashboard with writing telling me gearbox error need repair initially thought it was a one off but this has happened subsequently throughout the day it only happens when I move the button from park to drive. Could anybody give me any suggestions? I will be contacting the dealer tomorrow.

Hi Lou68 same happened to us its now back at the dealer we bought it from. Actually packed in again on his forecourt so they cant say there is no problem. No courtesy car and October 3rd befor its booked in. Shocking. Have a look at the Technical page of this forum other people are having the same problem. Seems to ve recalls in Italy and France from things i have read.

Well we had ours back three weeks after 4 in the garage Arnold Clark Salford never again and its now gone again.
NUmerous calls to Salford to get it sorted waste if time that service section. We are now asking Fiat aftercare what to do and see where they want to put it this time. Louise wants rid of the car she has lost all confidence in it. Probably going to try and get tge finance company involved and get the deal rescinded. We shall see. Nice car to drive but absolutely no reliability.

Well after 12 days in Arnold Clarks Salford amazing SERVICE department not one clue as to what is happening. Now being told the diagnosics dont show a fault. This is despite the car arriving on an RAC transporter after 2 RAC operatives had seen the fault registering on the car. So they cant get Fiat to agree a plan! Wonder if Fiat know that.
Now the absurd statement from their service manager, that it might be because we do short journeys in the car thats causing it. We do 500 mile round trip journeys to our caravan in Northumberland in it for Gods sake!
I think Fiat would be amazed at a service station manager intimating that their car is no good for run around town type driving, absolutely ludicrous.
Not a clue where we are going next but it is not a good journey. Fiat 600 hybrid rubbish? Arnold Clark even worse, definetely.
