Buyer beware fiat are renowned for very bad airbag ecu’s that crap out on a regular basis and cost over 1k to get fixed. All it takes is to go over a big pot hole at speed or to rotate either of the front seats to fast and the electronics fail. My advice read as many online forums before making a decision to buy a rollerteam on a fiat chassis. FYI I still own one and am satisfied with everything else.
Rebecca Savage we’ve also got a 740, our Airbag ECU failed on a trip a few weeks ago, Fiat should have issued a factory safety recall for all affected vehicles.
The airbag ECU is easy to replace. Just remove the bottom console panel, 4 screws, then 3 bolts holding the ECU. Make sure to disconnect the battery. We bought a new one for £285, all coded to the vehicle so no garage visit needed. It's a Fiat base problem, not just Roller team.

what would you recommend to be inline with this one? Just two of us looking to cruise around. The t 740 looked nice for this purpose.
