Common problems and easy repairs on a 2014 500L

The 2014 Fiat 500L is a moderately easy car to repair, though it has its share of tedious procedures. The wheel well lining needs to be removed to access the daytime running light and turn signal, which is a cramped procedure overall. The oil drain plug and lower radiator hose are located behind a large panel beneath the vehicle with multiple fasteners. The cabin air filter also takes some time to access, located behind a strongly reinforced glove box.

However, the 2014 Fiat 500L does have its positives. The battery is located directly next to the engine, with a bracket that’s pretty easy to remove. Setting up the Bluetooth is a relatively simple process with descriptive menus and instructions. The oil dipstick is convenient to locate, easy to remove, and very clear to read.
