Warranties

in this way are:•electrical drive module;
•lithium-ion battery (with a lithium-ion battery of
equal or greater capacity)
•transmission assemblies;
•instrument cluster assemblies;
•radios, tape, CD and DVD players;
•speedometers; and

sult, a repair to the sealed portion of your air-
conditioning system may involve the installation of
purified reclaimed refrigerant.

A defect in or damage to the mechanical, electrical,

vehicle may have occurred at the factory or while it was

5. How to Get Warranty Service
5.1 Where to Take Your FIAT 500e
A. In the United States (We Include U.S.
Possessions and Territories as Part of the
United States for Warranty Purposes):
Warranty service must be done by an authorized FIAT
repair facility. We strongly recommend that you take
your FIAT 500e to your Selling Dealer. They know you
and your FIAT 500e best, and are most concerned that
you get prompt and high quality service. If you move
within the United States, warranty service may be
requested from any authorized FIAT repair facility.
B. In Canada and Mexico:
If you are traveling temporarily in Canada or Mexico,
and your FIAT 500e remains registered in the UnitedStates, your Chrysler warranty still applies. Service may
be requested at any authorized FIAT repair facility.
C. In a Foreign Country Outside of North
America:
If you are traveling temporarily outside of North
America, and your vehicle remains registered in the
United States:
•You should take your FIAT 500e to an authorized
FIAT repair facility. They should give you the same
warranty service you receive in the United States.
•If the authorized FIAT repair facility charges you for
repairs which you feel should be covered under your
warranty, please get a detailed receipt for the work
done. Make sure that this receipt lists all warranty
repairs and parts that were involved. (This receipt will
be similar to the one used by the authorized FIAT
repair facility who normally services your vehicle.)
