After leasing a 2013 Fiat 500 Electric vehicle in February 2014, the owner found herself returning to an FCA dealership in September 2014 for repairs. She subsequently provided FCA four (4) more opportunities to fix problems, which kept her vehicle out of service for more than 67 days. When she contacted the Law Offices of Delsack & Associates P.C. she told us she was having problems with the:
- Power Inverter Module (PIM)
- ABS system
- Regenerative Braking Controller (RBC)
- Body Control Module (BCM)
- On Board Charging Module (OBCM)
- Propulsion Warning System
In addition to these repairs, the owner had several recalls affecting the electric propulsion system and the power inverter.
We determined the 500E was a good candidate for a lemon law buyback and were able to negotiate a repurchase of the defective vehicle. Our client was reimbursed for her down payment, monthly payments, and registration, less only the mileage deduction allowed under the California Lemon Law. FCA additionally paid her lease balance in full and all attorney fees. Our client was very excited about the outcome.
