Haha, luckily this is our first breakdown in 4 years… but point taken. I’m definitely disappointed. I get things happen. And you could call such a substantial failure (at less than 30k miles) bad luck. But then add in the dealer experience, the repair goof and on top of that, poor support from Stellantis corporate… it’s enough to make me avoid buying a new Stellantis from here on out.
I’m just glad this happened under warranty. It was one of the few vehicles that fit in the garage of our toy hauler, which is why we chose it in the first place.
@@AroundTheSunWeGo yeah that definitely limits your selection with the options we have in North America. I know the Scion iq is smaller than the fiat but it was discontinued in 2015 unfortunately.
I agree with the other comments about Fiat. Car trouble is tough, especially away from home. Glad you had a good attitude.
Appreciate that! Yeah, sometimes it’s a struggle to stay positive when things go wrong, but we do our best. After all, this is what we signed up for!
Love the story can’t wait for part 2
Coming soon my brother!
Rofl, you bought a fiat and expected not to break down constantly.

@@AroundTheSunWeGo My comment was a little harsh, sorry about that. Machines break, sorry you had trouble with your fiat.
@@itrow9526 you’re good! No need to apologize.
Fiats are trash. Trade that pos in once it’s fixed and buy a Toyota

@@AroundTheSunWeGo understandable. Is the Toyota Yaris to big? I know it’s slightly larger than the a 500
Yeah, it’s about 11 inches too long.

@@Dammmnnnnnnnnnnn At the time our only new options were Chevy Spark, Fiat 500 and Smart EQ Fortwo
