Common problems and easy repairs on a 2007 Grande Punto

The 2007 Fiat Grande Punto Active is a relatively easy car to maintain but it does have its share of complicated procedures. The entire bulb housing will need to be removed to reliably access the tail lights, whose bulb assembly is further secured by multiple screws. The engine air filter is located in the engine cover, which can be problematic and cumbersome to navigate around. Unlike similar models, the front wiper blades will require tools to remove their covers before they can be taken off the arms.

However, the 2007 Fiat Grande Punto Active has many high points. None of the headlights require any tools for access and most are found by simply reaching behind the bulb housing. The battery has very open access to its bracket and terminals, allowing for easy removal when necessary. The spare tire and jack kit are packaged together, which aids in set-up in the event of a flat.
