PROVISIONS FOR THE PROCESSING OF A VEHICLE AT THE END OF
ITS LIFE-CYCLE
For years now Fiat has been developing its global commitment towards the safeguarding and protection of the Environ-
ment through the continuous improvement of its production processes and the making of increasingly more “eco friendly”
products. With a view to guaranteeing the best possible service to clients in full observance of environmental norms and in
response to the obligations imposed by European Directive 2000/53/EC on end-of-life vehicles, Fiat offers its clients the
possibility to hand in their vehicle* at the end of its life span without additional costs.
The European Directive, in fact, provides for the collection of the vehicle without the last holder or owner of the same in-
curring expenses due to the fact that the market value of the vehicle is zero or negative. In particular, in almost all of the
countries of the European Union, up until 1st January 2007, collection of the vehicle free of charge only applies to vehicles
registered from 1 July 2002 on, while, from 2007 on collection will be carried out free of charge independently of the year
of registration, provided that the vehicle still contains its essential component parts (especially engine and body) and is free
from additional waste materials.
To have your end-of-life vehicle collected at no additional cost, simply contact one of our dealers or one of the collection
and demolition centres authorised by Fiat. These centres have been carefully selected with a view to guaranteeing a good
quality service for the collection, processing and recycling of discarded vehicles while protecting the Environment.
Information on collection and demolition centres may be obtained from the network of Fiat and Fiat Commercial Vehicle
dealers, by calling the toll free number 00800 3428 0000 or by consulting the Fiat web site.
* Passenger transportation vehicles to seat a max. of nine persons, having a total admissible weight of 3.5 t
