Fiat 500X years to avoid FIAT 500 Saloon (01.1957 - 01.1976)

It is not recommended to avoid specific model years of the Fiat 500X, but caution should be exercised with early model years (2014-2015) due to possible ‘critical safety issues’ and ‘power loss at high revs’, as well as with cars manufactured in 2022 and later, as the discontinuation of the model was announced this year, which may lead to difficulties with spare parts.
Models to look out for:
Newer models: Models from 2020-2021 and newer are likely to have fewer safety and reliability issues, as they have undergone design improvements.

What to look for when buying:
Safety concerns:
Some early Fiat 500X models have had critical safety issues that may be related to design features, according to Endurance Warranty.
Power loss at high revs:
Some owners have complained about a loss of engine power at high revs.

Parts availability issues:
In 2022, Fiat announced that it would discontinue production of the 500X, so if you are considering purchasing a model from this year or older, you should ensure that it is still available.
