This circular is intended to communicate the Technical Teams currently active. We remind that for models involved in Technical Teams it is mandatory to open a Blue On Line report for all repairs, following the same criteria and classification explained in the Blue On Line Policy. In any case, at least a Factory Information report is required for all repairs under Contractual Warranty (Cost Code 16). These reports will be escalated and analyzed by the Technical Team (consisting of personnel belonging to the Product Support, Engineering, Quality, Spare Parts, Customer Care and ABM departments) with the constant aim of avoiding any anomaly highlighted could involve other cars already produced further to cars from current and future production.
What this bulletin may mean before buying
Treat this as service research, not a verdict on one car. Before you buy, compare this communication with official recall campaigns, model-level owner complaint patterns, and the exact vehicle’s VIN-decoded specifications. A bulletin can help you ask a seller or dealer sharper questions about software updates, known repairs, warranty extensions and service history.
