Fiat bulletin 24-002-26

What it saysHeater Blowing Cold Air The customer may comment on the following: SYMPTOM: Automatic air conditioning starts to flow cold air even if hot temperature is set. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Fiat filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Mar 27, 2026, received Apr 1, 2026. It names 1 model year (2025). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

What the bulletin says

Built 1 Jul 2025 – 6 Dec 2025 “Built on or after July 01, 2025 (MDH 0701XX) and on or before December 06, 2025”

What it applies to, as the document itself states it — the build window in the manufacturer’s own words, read by machine from the PDF NHTSA serves. The build date is on the certification label in the driver’s door jamb; the dealer settles a borderline vehicle by its VIN.

Heater Blowing Cold Air The customer may comment on the following: SYMPTOM: ● Automatic air conditioning starts to flow cold air even if hot temperature is set. This bulletin involves removing the sponge from the temperature sensor.

Read by machine from the document NHTSA serves (5 pages), read Sep 29, 2026. A part number is shown only where it matches Fiat’s own catalogue shape, an operation only with its code and time, and a description only where the reader got it whole; anything it could not settle is left out, and the PDF is the record. Times are the manufacturer’s warranty allowances, not a quote. Listings and prices on eBay Motors are the seller’s.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Fiat 24-002-26 a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the 24-002-26 repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way. Every Stellantis warranty extension on file lists the ones Stellantis has filed.

Which vehicles does 24-002-26 cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 1 model year: 2025 Fiat 500e. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone. The document itself sets the build window: built 1 Jul 2025 – 6 Dec 2025 — the build date is on the certification label in the driver’s door jamb.
