What does the red light with the lightning bolt on the Fiat Freemont mean?
Years 2011-2016

Answer

The red lightning light on the Fiat Freemont indicates a fault in the electronic throttle control system (ETC). If the light stays on while the engine is running, the vehicle can still be driven. However, contact your dealer as soon as possible for a check. If the light flashes while the engine is running, immediate action is required: you may experience a drop in performance, an irregular / high idle or an engine stall.
