The 2018 Fiat Abarth 124 Spider is currently under recall, three years after it was last on sale in Australia.

Affecting a total of 68 units built and sold in 2018, the Abarth 124 Spider's recall notice has been put out due to a manufacturing fault with the vehicle's fuel pump inside the fuel delivery module, potentially leading it to fail.

If the pump fails, it would result in a loss of engine power with the vehicle losing drive, increasing the risk of its occupants and other road users coming to harm.
