Used 2015 FIAT 500L Consumer Reviews
'DON'T Buy ONE, Mayor REGRET!'
use it was cute, looked fun. I regret the day I did that, I've never had a vehicle with so much issues. lights go off frequently. Breaks inconsistent, lastly panel board goes crazy, with engine light, and others go off I call the dealership to take it in, I setup an appointment to have it diagnosed, they keep it for a week to advise me that the transmission is gone at 70,000 miles. I challenged that since I drove it there. I had researched recalls on this model, and was told that all the recalls where completed, I asked where and when and was told that the place it was originally done is no longer in business, sketchy with Fiat INC. they avoided me with follow up which made it even more frustrating. I highly recommend YOU to stay away from looking at this disaster of a car, the so called Corporate side of them is in complete denial, I'm now stuck with a car, that I serviced & maintained when due, to have this extra expense of a new trans that they priced at $5,400 to repair, is disheartening!!!

Love my Fiat!
I bought this car new. It is a 2014 Fiat 500L Trekking model, and has 16,000+ miles on it. It has made two trips from Michigan to Florida and back. The car is great in the city, size and handling, and was really great on the trips to Florida and back. (mileage and navigation were a plus). There is ample room for storage, luggage and such. I have not had a repair, just oil changes. Visibility is the best I have ever had. I still love it!

Chrysler Customer Service is Worthless
My daughter bought a 2014 500L less than 10 months ago. Yesterday we were quoted $13,000 to put a new transmission in it. After several conversations with customer service, checking on the service history of a recall that describes perfectly what is wrong with the car, Chrysler has said they will do nothing for us. Everyone I have spoken with laughs at that repair estimate. I feel we are being scammed. DO NOT EVER BUY A FIAT.
Avoid Fiats
My 2014 500L Trekking with 50,000 miles needs a complete, bare metal repaint. Two body shops tell me they see several Fiats a day with severe paint oxidation. Maaco says Fiat used the wrong sealer. Estimated cost to fix is ~$9000.00. Shame on you, Fiat!!!
