TxRover Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 13 hours ago, Sergeant Wilson said: I can see on the instrument panel there is display similar to the petrol gauge, but with battery power, which sits at 10%. It starts well, it's only 2 years old. I think I will have to take it in. I know the mild hybrid thing is a bit of a con and the car will run perfectly well without the auxiliary battery, but I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong. No doubt there's a button somewhere I've overlooked. Looks like it’s a semi-common issue, and often related to either a software update or a sensor. https://www.fiat500owners.com/threads/fiat-500-hybrid-2020-battery-not-charging.153103/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL;DR is take it to the stealer dealer to sort out, that’s not normal, and they’ll have seen it before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did, they don't resolve issues on site. I had to phone the warranty provider, I'm waiting for a call back. It'll probably be Monday now. I'll just continue to destroy the planet until it's fixed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't take this as a personal slight but your choice / taste in horseless carriages is highly questionable. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxRover Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 3 minutes ago, scottsdad said: 7 year warranty included... Given the absolute state of replacement parts being sold in the U.S. that are manufactured in China, buying a Chinese owned consortium’s vehicle, even with a seven year warranty, seems daring. And what’s covered for seven years is the question to ask. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
