Consumer Description

MY 2012 FIAT IS HAVING STARTER ISSUES. SOMETIMES THE ENGINE JUST CUTS OFF. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT ALL 2012 FIATS RECENTLY SERVICED, ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. THERE IS NO FIX UNTIL CHRYSLER CREATES A CODE FOR THE SYSTEM. I ASKED HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON AND HE SAID 3 MONTHS NOW. SO BASICALLY I HAVE TO DEAL WITH MY CAR BARLEY STARTING AND POSSIBILY CUTTING OFF AND THERE IS NO SOLUTION. THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS AND MAY LEAD TO OTHER DAMAGES. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
