2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia

Been waiting to have this recall repaired for months. I started the car and excessive amount of fuel was injected into the combustion chamber, cause a smoke cloud.

THE REAR VIEW CAMERA IS TOTALLY DARK AND I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING WHILE IT IS ENGAGED. THERE IS A RECALL ALREADY FOR SOME MODEL YEARS BUT NOT FOR MY ALFA ROMEO GUILIA 2018. I WANT THIS YEAR TO BE INLCUDED IN THE RECALL ALSO.

After towing my vehicle to Alfa Romeo of Mariettea on November 4th for recall 82B (seatbelt), my car immediately developed throttle hesitation, check-engine light, and start/stop warning light. These issues were not present before the service. Recall 93C (fuel delivery module) remains open, but the timing of these new problems indicates they arose from the 82B service. The dealership and Alfa Romeo have refused interim assistance, leaving my car unsafe to drive. Requested Actions: 1. Inspection and repair of the post-service throttle and engine issues. 2. Interim transportation (loaner or reimbursement) while 93C is pending. I have documented all communications with the dealership and Alfa Romeo Customer Care. The problems appeared immediately after the 82B recall service and were not present before.

i have been waiting for months received a letter from Alfa Romeo sent them my details, for them to get in touch with me when the remedy for this potential dangerous fault to be rectified. Many crashes have taken place, as the car could potentially cut out whilst on the highways. For Alfa Romeo to leave me in a state where this car could cut out without warning at any stage is not unacceptable. I have to use my car for work, and I am having to resort to using other means with the fear this car could cut out on me on the freeways. They have failed to respond to my email or have they sent me a followup letter to get my car booked in and fixed.

While driving 15-20mph, warning lights: Check Engine, Auto Start-Stop Unavailable, and ETC, all began to sequentially cycle. The car's ability to accelerate significantly decreased, even achieving 30-40mph was laborious. Once on the highway, the car was significantly slower and the power was obvious. The car took a long time to reach 55mph and was going over that speed. I had the car towed to dealership the next day, for I was afraid that it was the fuel pump failure and felt the car wouldn't make the 75mi drive. After a few days, the dealership said that the ETC Code wasn't the fuel pump, but the oil pump causing the power loss. They said that Alfa Romeo had many models have oil pump failures, and it requires engine tear down to replace the oil pump and cost about $5000. Alfa Romeo Customer Care stated there is no recall for this problem, so one has to pay the $5k for the repair. I think Alfa Romeo knows the true cause of the power loss problem and the remedy, and using the oil pump as a loophole to make the consumer pay for a problem that they should cover the cost of repair. My car is at Jim Ellis Alfa Romeo in Atlanta, Georgia.

This is a follow up for complaint #11693742 issued on October 16, 2025. I picked up my car from the dealership (Jim Ellis Alfa Romeo Atlanta) after the nearly $5k repair that they stated was due to an Oil Pump failure not the Fuel Pump failure as indicated by the Stellantis Recall, only to find that they falsified information on the paperwork description. They left out the information that I gave them when I told them that the dashboard displayed the following warning lights: ETC, Auto Start-Stop Unavailable, and Check Engine. They wrote only the Check Engine light was reported. They falsely stated that only the Check Engine light was illuminated, when in reality all three of the aforementioned warning lights were displayed the very morning that I had the car loaded on the tow truck. Please investigate Stellantis/Alfa Romeo for possibly misleading and falsifying information in order to have consumers foot the bill for repair for a fix for power loss due to a Fuel Pump failure when in actually it is an Oil Pump failure, or an Oil Pump failure that they are falsely claiming a Fuel Pump issue. This repair cost me about as much as the cost of a used 2018 Alfa Romeo, and the company is making enough money of this repair such that when they do honor the recall repair, then it won't cost them anything. It seems easy to me that if they is a Fuel Pump failure that is resulting in a recall, then the easy fix (that Stellantis should cover the cost) is to replace the fuel pump.

The contact's husband owns a 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia. The contact stated that while her husband was driving 60 MPH, several braking system warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel, including the ABS warning light. Upon depression of the brake pedal, the brake pedal depressed to the floorboard, and the braking system failed to operate as needed. Due to the failure, the contact's husband activated the hazard lights and coasted the vehicle to the residence. Upon exiting the vehicle, the contact saw brake fluid leaking underneath the passenger’s side of the vehicle. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to the dealer; the contact was informed that the hydraulic braking system had failed and needed to be replaced. The dealer also informed the contact that the vehicle was previously serviced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V828000 (Engine and Engine Cooling, Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the vehicle was no longer covered under the recall. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle remained in the possession of the dealer unrepaired. The failure mileage was approximately 66,000.

At night, with headlights set to AUTO, the headlights (right and left) will randomly turn of and on while driving. This could render my vehicle momentarily invisible to other drivers around me. Dealer confirmed the issue is the headlights. 70,000 mile service was just completed prior the the issues fist occurrence. No warnings or messages before the first incident.

The contact owns a 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start. The check engine and service electric throttle warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the failure had occurred while it was hot outside. The contact was stranded and sat in the inoperable vehicle. In addition, the contact was pregnant and very uncomfortable sitting in an inoperable vehicle. The contact waited in the vehicle while waiting for the tow truck. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V586000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 69,500.

There were several code error messages describing a fuel pump issue that also creates other engine components to fail. For my concern of the safety my life, I paid to tow my vehicle directly to the car dealership service department to be inspected and am currently waiting to be contacted of their findings. In order to be able to move my car from blocking traffic and out of harm's way, the error codes had to be erased. I took pictures of the error codes prior to erasing and provided them to the service department for their review. Warning lamps and messages flashed simultaneously when my vehicle ceased to function. While driving my 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio September 16, 2025, the engine ceased to function under legal normal driving conditions for no apparent reason. The engine immediately turned itself off, and both the steering wheel and vehicle was locked in place (unable to move). This event jeopardized me, and other affected drivers' lives. It was only due to the quick reaction of defensive driving attentiveness that prevented the potential collision of multiple vehicles including loss of life/lives. I had taken my vehicle to the same service department previously in November 2024 for the exact same type of issue (ceased vehicle, locked in place steering wheel and vehicle). However, because error messages were erased, the service department would not be able to know what steps were needed to fix the problem and that I should bring back my vehicle with error codes intact should this occur again. I have this in writing on my invoice. No police report involved as no physical accident/damage occurred, and everyone who was involved including myself left without further incident, and very traumatized.

NHTSA #25V-586 Recall #93C 2017-2019 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA, 2018-2019 ALFA ROMEO The vehicle has been experiencing inconsistent fuel readings, an electronic throttle control fault, and a service engine warning. When the electronic throttle control fault occurs, the vehicle loses power, stalls, and struggles to accelerate, which raises concerns about its suitability for commuting. On several occasions, while driving on highways, my vehicle has experienced loss of power, resulting in a significant reduction in speed. This has necessitated extended commute times on streets due to the apprehension of causing accidents. Consequently, I have had to miss several workdays in an attempt to address this issue. Initially, I resorted to using rental vehicles out of pocket until a solution for this recall was found. However, despite my efforts, there has been no resolution, and I am left with concerns about driving my vehicle and potentially causing an accident due to the lack of safety measures or the ongoing financial burden of renting vehicles until a solution for the recall is implemented. Despite multiple attempts to schedule a repair, there has been no resolution, and the date for bringing the vehicle in for inspection continues to be postponed. Despite multiple attempts to schedule a repair, no resolution has been achieved. The date to bring the vehicle in for inspection has been repeatedly postponed, and the date for inspection is now April 1st, 2026.

UNKNOWN, driving down a busy road and check engine light popped up and service electronic throttle system as well car stalled in the middle of the road and would not start when I tried to it would crank but not start. I noticed this incident was occurring in the past when I was close to half a tank of gas but now it’s occurring when I’m at 3/4 tank. I already addressed the possible issue of being a weak battery as I had to spend $250 on a new battery and the next day it happened again. After going through the forums and speaking with dealers they all have the same diagnosis that the fuel pump is going out. I would buy a fuel pump and replace it myself but you have to replace the module with it and have to have a very expensive scanner to sync the two together.

When driving on the highway, the car completely stalled. Without warning service engine and service transmission light illuminated on instrument cluster. P008a low fuel pressure. Safety was put at risk. Unable to move car safely away from traffic at night. The car was just serviced at an alpha romeo dealership three weeks prior with similar symptoms for the 3rd time. After brief research, this seems to be a common issue with these car.

Fuel pump issues have caused my car to create unsafe driving. My etc system kicks on and off while driving which causes massive loss of power then accelerates to the point of red line. it's like I'm putting my pedal to the floor in traffic when trying to inch up. Fuel lump is on order for me but has been on back order for more than 3 months with no date of shipment. Dealership said car was OK to drive but could ultimately cut off and not start back up till this part is replaced.

I was in an accident with another vehicle where my car rear ended theirs. It a pretty bad damage because my car is totaled. The seatbelt never locked and my airbag never deployed, causing me to go headfirst into my wheel and followed my chest. I was escorted to the hospital due to those injures. I was never notified of a recall from either dealership, which they have failed me because there was nothing there to support my body. There were no warning signs or anything of that sort to let me know there was an issue. I never heard anything from Alfa Romeo or Reed Nissan after they did an inspection on my vehicle. I am highly disappointed and suffering from traumatic pain and injury from this.
