Safety recall on radio unit
« on: February 19, 2018, 10:05:33 PM »
Hi All

We've just had a message to have work done on the radio unit. Any one else had this? Can it wait until the scheduled service?

Hi Andy ,
I had the same notification today..........it may be worth contacting Abarth to confirm if it can be carried out with the scheduled service.

Which radio system do you have? The Blue&me unit or the newer colour screen thing that's in the S4?

I have the 7 inch Uconnect in my Trofeo and just had the same recall text.

Wierd thing is, I had a recall for the radio carried out last year. Im wondering if this is more software tweaks?

I called the Abarth 00800 number, it is a dealer required fix to something, so cannot be done via a download, but is not a safety recall so not urgent, they said it can wait for the service.

Morning all, been off forum for a while, work and ‘stuff’ intervened in recreational distractions. Anyway, JL has had similar notice for the radio. Ours is off to Motorvogue next week. Same day as the Tricity goes to Yamaha for a minor recall too, so it’s going to be a busy day...
