On a side note. Perhaps you shouldn't press the accelerator down all the away and to the left. lol

there is another video with the simple fix for this problem..

they change a plastic cup under the pedal and everything is ok :icon_thumright::rolleyes:

That was on the first cars, now they have fix this but the pedals broke like a fresh egg if you hit them hard and release them fast (they broke at the expansion end) ! .... our member cin333 (http://www.500fans.com/member.php?u=554) have already change them 3 times and my brother one time just a few minutes before the delivery at the dealer! :mad:
I really don't know how mine are still the original ones, maybe because I am fast but have a ABS and ESP on my right foot from birth (30 years of motorcycle experience makes you drive this way) or just because I have only 2.500 KM on the clock! ;) :D

you talk about Guiletta or 500 abarth?

i am confused.

The video is about Guiletta and there is a simple fix for it as i said....

for the 500 abarth, we knew that from the beginning, (it wasnt the right pedal as the Guiletta, but the left one)

and as cin333 and other members they went and changed it.

It is about the brake pedal (the center one) and not the pedal itself, but some valve connection on the pedal, always on the 500 Abarth!

Hi,

Have now about 29000 on the clock and no problem at all.

I suppose that if there is something dangerous possible, someone in the US will find out and try to make a lot of money out of that.
All strange things happen over there first.biggrin2
