The 2024 Fiat 500E has 3 recalls, the most serious involving a front seatbelt buckle sensor that may not connect properly, which can prevent the front airbag from deploying in a crash.
The remaining two recalls both address the same headlight issue: missing covers over the horizontal aim adjusters can allow the headlights to shift out of alignment, reducing the driver's forward visibility or creating glare for oncoming traffic.
