Used 2014 FIAT 500L Consumer Reviews
Too Much Too Soon
Service has been terrible. Had it in 6 times for the check engine light. Bluetooth is terrible. I can hear who I've called, but when the car is moving, they can barely understand what I am saying.

Haven't had the issues people are describing.
Bought a 2014 Fiat 500L Trekking with 56k miles. The only thing I've had to do is change my headlight and break light. The car now has 90k miles and never any problems. I'm just now going to change the brake pads. I'm 5'11" and there is so much legroom and headroom in the front and back seats which both recline and slide back. I have a manual. I've noticed some complaints that should not be complaints. If people don't know how to use the different options of the car, then that's your fault not Fiats. Someone complained about when you're on a hill and you take your foot off the break it takes a few seconds for the break to disengage to be able to move. Not true. This is an option you can change. It's an option to not have the car immediately roll backwards when you're on a hill. You just put it in gear and go. It's a safety option for people who get nervous on hills or whatever and you can change it in the options menu on the screen. Everyone has their own experiences good and bad, mine has been great.

Quality, fun, and practical!
I owned and loved my Fiat 500L for over 5 years and the only reason I sold it was to buy something smaller.

98,000 miles Trekkking
2014 Fiat 500L Trekking. Just had my first real problem with the car. I drive it a little hard one morning and I started to lose power. My first thought was the transmission. I was able to get it to the dealer on its own by not driving hard. Turned out to be a turbo issue. The dealer said a clip holding on the waste gate was missing. Ok so replace the clip? Not the case you cannot order just the clip according to the dealer! the turbo is $900.00 plus 5-6 hrs. installation. Not a problem I have a third party warranty and I am under the 100k by just 1600 miles! Feeling good until the company that provides the warranty said this is not covers because you lost the clip. According to them it is not the turbo that is bad it is the fact that you lost the clip. Like I removed it! After going back and forth with them they agreed to sent out an adjuster to evaluate. I will add to this based on the final result. Bottom line I really enjoy the car, it has been reliable everyone that gets in it is impressed with the room and ride. 6-28-19 car performing well. Time for front struts and going on my 3 rd set of front brakes. Overall very little issues with this car.
