Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)When attempting to close an open sunroof, something failed and the sunroof will no longer move. I had to drive 2 hours at highway speeds with the open panoramic sunroof, which caught a lot of air and which I was worried would blow off or be damaged by debris since it was now raised up and exposed. A mechanic has looked at the sunroof and is unable to operate it manually or electronically. Alfa Romeo does not have a manual method to close the sunroof in case of failure, and the electric motor only makes a flapping sound when used, as if the cable connecting the motor and the sunroof had snapped. There were no warnings or indications that anything was wrong or that any issues were developing. I normally do not use the sunroof and opened it for the first time when this happened. The cost to repair this issue seems excessive, on par with a full turbocharger replacement.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, A LOUD ABNORMAL NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE SUN ROOF WAS SHATTERED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HERITAGE ALFA ROMEO (11216 REISTERSTOWN RD, OWINGS MILLS, MD 21117, (855) 529-3222) WHERE THE SUN ROOF WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,900.
SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR IN JAN 2018, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD TWICE DUE TO CRACKING. I HAVE DRIVEN THE SAME ROUTE FOR 10 YEARS IN VARIOUS CARS AND NEVER HAS THIS HAPPENED SO IT'S NOT AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. THE CRACKS APPEAR SUDDENLY AND TRAVEL ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD QUICKLY (FROM THE BOTTOM UPWARD OR FROM THE EDGES) WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR THERE'S A CHANGE IN WEATHER.
