Hi i have a ulysse 54 plate and in need of some serious advice!! My car refused to start last week to cut a long story short it has ended up at the local fiat dealer ship as other garages can not fix it. Turns out that the air con unit has a blocked drainage pipe which has blocked up and leaked into wiring loom and ecu. wiring loom has 3 inches of water in it which is causing spikes to all different electrical appliances in the car sending it haywire. The garage have got the car to start but have had to turn all the electrics of so can very unsafe not really driveable. Garage have said that it will cost £2500 to fix the wiring loom and ecu but they arent sure if the car will be fixed after that as not sure which other elec faults have been caused. dont want to pay all this money if not sure car will be working after. car not saleable and we still owe 2 years finance on:bang: it. Got in touch with fiat as sounds like design fault they are looking into it and will contact within 36 hours not holding out much hope. Also spoke to consumer direct who have advised that all manufacturing faults are covered for six years feel like we are clutching at straws but are in a desperate situation and would love any advice.
