CarComplaints.com Notes: Considering sales numbers and data that monitors complaints-per-make, there appears to be an unusually high number of issues with the 2012 Fiat 500. Perhaps that isn't surprising -- it is the first model year of the car, and those tend to have a higher incidence rate.
Of particular concern is the number of engine and powertrain complaints submitted to NHTSA.

One would think that Chrysler could/would place rotors in a Fiat with some semblance of quality, rather than to outfit the auto with sub-standard components. Although under warranty, dealer says rotors are no covered because they are a "wear item." Decent, quality rotors should last for more than 17,000 miles and, under these circumstances, should be replaced as a warranty item.
