I've had my factory fresh Fiat based motorhome for a few weeks and only today I noticed something odd. It doesn't have the LED daytime running lights in the headlight, as has been standard for a year or two. I'm pretty sure the base vehicle is genuinely new, it comes with hill descent and traction control which I think were introduced this year, but I might be wrong.
My dealer is closed for August (we live in France) so I haven't questioned it yet.
My guess is that due to COVID the LED running light / headlights weren't available and Fiat substituted them with old stock headlights.
I will ask for replacements as LED running lights are a safety feature and they were explicitly promoted in the brochure but expect I'll get fobbed off with some small print that excuses changes in specification.
Mildly hacked off but not enough to let it bug me long term...
