12 recalls for 7 Fiat models in 2019
In 2019, Fiat announced 12 recalls involving 7 models through the EU Rapex system. The Talento (4) and Ducato (2) were the most recalled models.
We’ve sorted all 2019 recalls according to the model into a table below.
Four recalls were announced by Fiat for the Talento van. Two of them due to problems with the parking brake, one for unfastened seat belts and the fourth for possible fuel tank rupture.
The larger van Ducato was recalled twice. Incorrectly installed fuel lines can lead to fuel leaks. An incorrectly fastened battery can move while driving and can cause a short circuit. A counterweight mounted on the back of the floor may fall off the Fiat Scudo.
With the Fiat 124 Spider, a faulty software can cause an inadvertent downshifting of the automatic transmission, while with the Fiat 500 from the end of 2018, the right front drive shaft is faulty and may break.
