I haven't noticed this before but with my radio off, I hear a slight 'winding' sound when I turn my steering wheel left or right. It sounds like zzzzz zzzzz like when you wind up a watch.It inside the steering wheel [not outside the car]. I have to put my ear close to the wheel to hear it, but I can hear it for sure. Maybe something is loose inside? Can somebody go to their 500 and with the radio off see if they got the same sound? Everything on my car works perfect but I was just wondering if anybody else hears this winding sound.]]>

At the time of sale they made an oops on the paperwork and charged me an extra $200. I didn't catch it 'til the next day and they didn't feel compelled to remedy the error.

A coworker here is looking for a new car for his wife and knew that my wife and I are enjoying the FIAT. He went to the studio, took a look at the car, and the salesman said to him, "guess you don't think it's much of a car, huh?"
My friend hadn't said anyting negative about the car at all; he said the entire staff was like that. Uninspired.

I brought the car in for its first oil change at 6,000 miles to the other dealer in the area, Landmark, in Atlanta. Nice folks, very enthusiastic.
But they forgot to reset the oil change thingie.

So my wife calls me today, scared. She's got an idiot light, the "general" one. And she's reading the list of what it might be to me.
I told her to call me back in 10 minutes while I check the forum --- during that time she called TEAM FIAT, described all of what was going on, and they told her to call roadside assistance and get a towtruck.
It was the oil change reminder; I had her reset it.
The doo-doo-heads at TEAM FIAT told her to call for a tow truck for an oil change reminder. That would've taken the rest of the day and then she would've had to go back tomorrow to pick up the car.
Idiots.

I'm done with them. If all FIAT studios were like this, jeez. [/rant.paused]]]>
