As part of the quality assurance process by our supplier Fiat, it has been determined that some 160 & 180hp Ducato vehicles equipped with a 9-speed automatic transmission may experience a malfunction of the torque converter, leading to limp mode (reduced speed, deactivation of non-essential functions). To address this malfunction, Stellantis has initiated Service Action 6926.
This service action has been communicated by Stellantis to all Fiat Professional partners and is therefore well-known. Affected vehicles being 160hp & 180hp models only. An appointment can be directly arranged with a Fiat Professional partner so that the service action can be carried out on the vehicles accordingly. During these operations, a software update of the engine and transmission control unit will be performed, which will be completely free of charge. Further information is available at any time from all connected Fiat dealers. Please be aware that this notice is NOT an urgent recall and could possibly carried out with your next engine service. The Service Action can only be carried out by an authorized Fiat workshop. You can find the location of your closest Fiat Workshop at www.fiat.co.nz/en/motorhomes.html. For your information: Stellantis is the parent company of Fiat. |
