1. Your Legal Rights UnderThese Limited Warranties
The warranties contained in this booklet are the only
express warranties that Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler)
makes for your FIAT 500e. These warranties give you
specific legal rights. You may also have other rights
that vary from state to state. For example, you may
have some implied warranties, depending on the state
where your FIAT 500e was sold or is registered.
These implied warranties are limited, to the extent
allowed by law, to the time periods covered by the
express written warranties contained in this booklet.
If you use your FIAT 500e primarily for business or
commercial purposes, then these implied warranties do
not apply and Chrysler completely disclaims them to the
extent allowed by law. And the implied warranty of
fitness for a particular purpose does not apply if your
FIAT 500e is used for racing, even if the vehicles is
equipped for racing. Some states do not allow limitations on how long
an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations
may not apply to you.1.1 Incidental and Consequential
Damages Not Covered
Your warranties don’t cover any incidental or conse-
quential damages connected with your FIAT 500e’s
failure, either while under warranty or afterward.
Examples of such damages include: • lost time;
• inconvenience;
• the loss of the use of your FIAT 500e;
•
the cost of rental vehicles, telephone, travel, or lodging;• the loss of personal or commercial property; and
• the loss of revenue.
Some states don’t allow incidental or consequential
damages to be excluded or limited, so this exclusion
may not apply to you.

2.1 Basic Limited Warranty
A. Who Is Covered?
You are covered by the Basic Limited Warranty if you
are a purchaser for use of the FIAT 500e.
B. What’s Covered
The Basic Limited Warranty covers the cost of all parts
and labor needed to repair any item on your FIAT 500e
when it left the manufacturing plant that is defective in
material, workmanship or factory preparation. There is
no list of covered parts since the only exception is tires.
You pay nothing for these repairs covered by the Basic Limited Warranty. These warranty repairs or adjustments
— including all parts and labor connected with them —
will be made by your authorized FIAT repair facility at
no charge, using new or remanufactured parts.
C. Items Covered by Other Warranties
The following are covered by separate warranties offered
by their makers. They are
not coveredby the Basic
Limited Warranty:
• tires; or
• items added or changed after your FIAT 500e left the
manufacturing plant, such as accessories or protection
products, or items changed because of customization.
Be sure you get a copy of any warranty that applies to
these items from your dealer, or from the maker of the
product. You can find the tire warranty statements in
your Owner’s Literature Package.

• it’s registered in the U.S.;
• it’s driven mainly in the U.S. or Canada; and
• it’s operated and maintained in the manner described

2.2 Corrosion Warranty
A. Who Is Covered?
You are covered if you are a purchaser for use of the
FIAT 500e.
B. What’s Covered
This warranty covers the cost of all parts and labor
needed to repair or replace any body sheet metal panels
that have been perforated by rust from the inside out.
If a hole occurs because of something other than corro-
sion, this warranty does not apply. Cosmetic or surface
corrosion — resulting, for example, from stone chips or
scratches in the paint — is not covered. For more details
on what isn’t covered by this warranty, see 3.5.
C. How Long It Lasts
The Corrosion Warranty starts when your Basic Limited
Warranty begins under 2.1(E).
This warranty has two time-and-mileage limits: • For sheet metal panels, the limit is 36 months, with no
mileage limit.
•
For an outer-body sheet metal panel — one that is
finish-painted and that someone can see when walking
around the vehicle — the limits are 5 years or unlimited
miles on the odometer, whichever occurs first.
D. What’s Not Covered
Please note that while the standard Corrosion Limited
Warranty applies to defects in material and/or workman-
ship, it does not cover the vehicle’s matte finish appear-
ance (if equipped).
