Hi guys,
I collected my 500x on May 18th and since then it has spent 12 weeks back at the dealership!!!
My auto brake assist has kicked in twice now for NO reason - just as I have been driving down the road.
The first time I took it back and it was in the garage for 6 weeks for them to tell me there was no issues and I should just "monitor" it.
I had been turning off the system manually but forgot as I was in a rush one night, and it happened again.
I have no idea how I didn't cause an accident the second time. It was terrifying and I got so much abuse from the car behind me. I was just glad that I was moving relatively slowly and I wasn't on a motorway!!
The car however isn't registering a fault when it happens. I am terrified to drive it again and Fiat are refusing to acknowledge that there is an issue - but also refusing to put that in writing.
I have about a £3k defecit on the agreement so ideally I do not want to trade it in for something else!
Has anyone had any similar problems - or is there any advice you can offer in this situation??
Thanks for any help
