64300 mi US $1140 |
Bad ball joints, upper strut mounts and bearings. Also replaced wheels & tires. Dealer doesn't sell 2012 part. Forces owners to buy later parts causing much extra expense. FIAT picked up about $300 in parts costs. |

The lower control arm bushings at the rear of the lower control arms had torn badly on the driver's side and some on the passenger's side. I ordered the DNA racing lower control arms which were drop-shipped direct from Italy. Installation is a large job. Front bumper cover has to be removed as well as serious support members. On a positive note, once all bolted in, the alignment was spot on! On a negative note, the racing straight line arms do limit the maximum angle the steering can be turned as wheels will hit the control arm. |

The wiring going through the roof to hatch grommet are all broken and the electric locks no longer work, nor the rear defog, nor does the rear wiper, nor can you open the hatch Plastic panels on cowl that rotted off are being replaced The triangle pieces in front of the mirrors are rotted off on both sides and will be replaced. BOTH windows need new regulators! One broke on it's own and the other had help from my 9 y/o ;) The rear defog has become detached from the window. AC was not cooling as it used to. Verified charge and levels were fine. Issue found to be bent fins on condenser coil. Due to the CHEAP design, they cannot be combed straight again. Trim ring that holds shift lever boot disintegrated. Dealer requires purchase of whole new boot. Company in west coast sells ring only. Driver's seat bottom came apart. Cracked and pieces of the vinyl chipped away. Found a set of leather Abarth seats and replaced them. (for only $350 too!) |
