Best on the record 2016

On the filed record so far, the 2016 is the cleanest 500 X year we hold, and the 2018 the one to check hardest.

Both figures are divided by the number of years the car has been on sale, because otherwise the oldest year on the page loses every time simply for having been around longer. The current model year and any year under three on the road are left out: their records are not finished.

On the recall record, the 2016 500 X comes out top of the years before the current one: Safety Signal grade A (92/100), 1 recall and 154 owner complaints on file. That ranks paperwork, not condition — a specific car's history and service record still decide it.

How many recalls does the Fiat 500 X have?

Across model years 2016–2018, NHTSA has posted 3 recall campaigns for the Fiat 500 X. They are counted per model year in the table above, because a campaign almost never covers the whole run — it covers a build range.
