NHTSA Complaint #11123115 — 2013 FIAT 500

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, (76 EAST IN AKRON OHIO)TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE SHOP FOR A CHECK ENGINE AND BATTERY LIGHT THAT CAME ON, WARNING LIGHTS OF ALL SORTS STARTED TO POP UP. IT BASICALLY APPEARED TO CYCLE THROUGH ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS. I WAS PROBABLY ONLY AT 45 MPH, BARELY HIGHWAY SPEED, BUT IT IS HARD TO KNOW AS THE RMP AND SPEEDOMETER KEPT FLUCTUATING WILDLY. THEN THE CAR SLOWLY DIED TO A DEAD STOP WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. I STILL HAD LIGHTS AND AIR, AND ALL OTHER ELECTRICAL THINGS BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART. I MANAGED TO GET SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, A GENTLEMEN FROM THE STATE FARM ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE PUSHED ME INTO THE BEGINNING OF A CLOSED LANE. I WAS TOLD THIS ISSUE WAS MY ALTERNATOR NOT CHARGING PROPERLY. THERE IS ONLY ABOUT 52K MILES ON MY CAR.
