Known faults for Abarth Abarth Grande Punto / Punto Evo (Type 199)
Our database tracks 3 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Good
This rating reflects historical MOT pass rates and recurring advisory wear patterns from official DVSA test logs. Note that roadworthiness does not verify outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen records.
Verify lender finance agreements, insurance write-offs, police stolen registers, and mileage rollback.
Common Problems: ABARTH PUNTO
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Electric Power Steering Column Torque Sensor Failure(Serious)
The electric power steering (EPS) column unit on the Type 199 platform suffers from failure of the internal steering angle and torque position sensors. Thermal cycling and vibration fatigue the delicate internal potentiometer tracks and solder connections on the column ECU. The fault initially presents intermittently, often causing the steering to feel heavier in one direction before progressing to sudden total loss of steering assistance. When the system fails, a red steering wheel warning illuminates on the instrument cluster, making the vehicle exceptionally heavy to steer at low speeds.
- 1.4 MultiAir Actuator Uniactuator Module Failure(Serious)
The electro-hydraulic MultiAir uniactuator module fitted to the 1.4-litre Turbo engine on the Punto Evo replaces the intake camshaft with computer-controlled solenoid valves regulating oil pressure to the intake valves. If engine oil changes are delayed or incorrect oil specification is used, sludge and varnish contaminate the microscopic hydraulic passages and internal micro-filter. This causes solenoids to stick, leading to severe cylinder misfires (commonly P1061 to P1064), rough idle on cold start, limp-home mode, and unburnt fuel washing cylinder bores. Complete module replacement is required.
