I PURCHASED A 2016 FIAT 500X IN DECEMBER 2016. I AM A HOME CARE NURSE SO I DRIVE A LOT. I HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE SINCE BUYING THIS CAR AND IT'S BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP. IT IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND I AM HAVING TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. HERE IS THE STORY: WHEN IT RAINS HEAVILY, IN ARIZONA, MY ELECTRONICS IN MY CAR GO HAYWIRE. ACCORDING TO AUTONATION, I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN APPROXIMATELY 9 TIMES. MY POWER STEERING BECOMES DISABLED AND MY AIRBAGS BECOME DISABLED. THIS TIME, I WAS DRIVING DOWN 7TH STREET AT 7:30AM AND THIS HAPPENED. I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE WHAT IS EVENTUALLY GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME, IS THAT I GET KILLED. THIS CAR IS A LEMON. I NEED HELP BEFORE I DIE.
