The traditional car manufacturer FIAT is one of the largest automobile producers in the world. In comparison to the dominating vehicle brands like VW and FORD, the Italian brand has much lower sales figures, with a market share of less than 2% percent in the UK. The strengths of the Italian automobile manufacturer lie in the small car, sports car and compact car segments, as well as the light commercial vehicle segment with the Ducato.
Used FIAT vehicles are reliable and stable
FIAT was one of the first carmakers to make a name for itself on the British market. The model 500, which has been on the market since 1936, is legendary, as are the supermini series Uno and Panda. Functionality and practicality at low prices is the brand’s selling point. Accordingly, many models such as the Grande Punto are based on solid and stable technology. Typical issues are defective light bulbs, problems with the starter, or loose connections.
Common problems with FIAT models
Drivers of the 500 complain of chassis joints that wear at a mileage of about 50,000 km, as well as corroded silencers, oil loss at the gearbox and engine, and worn brake discs and pads. The compact vehicle Stilo has a lot of issues with defective clutches, turbochargers, or sensors. Used Seicento city cars have problems with torn control cables, rapid wear of the clutch components, and defective cylinder heads. The problem areas of the Panda are the electronics as well as defective fuel pumps and throttle valves.
