Sectioning And Partial Part Replacement: 2018 Fiat 124 Spider
I-CAR · October 2, 2018 · Fiat
Summary
This document outlines the sectioning and partial part replacement guidelines for the 2018 Fiat 124 Spider, detailing which structural components can be sectioned or partially replaced at factory seams. It specifies that while the front and rear rails and trunk floor can be partially replaced at factory seams, only the outer uniside allows for sectioning, while the uniside reinforcement, inner uniside, and trunk floor cannot be sectioned.
What to do on the job
Verify specific structural repair limits for the 2018 Fiat 124 Spider: only section the outer uniside, partially replace front/rear rails and trunk floors at factory seams, and do not attempt to section the inner uniside, uniside reinforcement, or trunk floor.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the replacement of complete structural assemblies versus sectioning when dealing with the inner uniside, uniside reinforcement, or trunk floor, as Fiat explicitly prohibits sectioning these components. It also supports labor for partial replacement at factory seams for the front/rear rails and trunk floor using GMA plug/spot welding.
