Consumer Description

THE OTHER DAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND SAID THAT MY COOLANT LEVEL WAS LOW. I WENT A GRABBED COOLANT AND FILLED IT UP TO THE MAX LINE. FOR TWO DAYS IN A ROW NOW, I HAVE BEEN HAVING LIGHTS RANDOMLY POP UP ON MY DASH. SUCH AS DRIVE MODE UNAVAILABLE, SERVICE ENGINE, 4WD UNAVAILABLE. IT HAS ALSO RANDOMLY STALLED WHILE DRIVING WITH MY SON IN THE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. WHICH THERE OBVIOUSLY IS. I SEARCHED AND NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES WITH THEIR 2016 FIAT 500X, AND THE DEALERSHIPS ALL SAY THE SAME THING. INCIDENTS HAVE ALLHAPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. ON NEIGHBORHOOD ROADS TO INTERSTATE. AT SPEED MILEAGE OF ANYWHERE FROM 15-70MPH.
