2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio recalls
Fuel pump may fail, causing loss of drive power
Certain 2017-2019 Alfa Romeo Giulia and 2018-2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio vehicles have a fuel pump that may fail.
Brake Pedal May Detach From Booster, Risking Loss of Braking
The fastener connecting the brake pedal to the brake booster may have been improperly assembled at the factory.
Front Airbag May Not Deploy in a Crash
A seat belt buckle switch sensor may be improperly connected, which can keep the front seat airbag from deploying as intended.
Brake Rotors May Crack, Reducing Stopping Power
Certain vehicles equipped with carbon ceramic brakes can experience excessive clamp force from the brake system during specific driving maneuvers.
Hard Braking Can Cause Loss of Brake Assist and ABS
Under hard braking, the rotor shaft in the anti-lock brake system (ABS) hydraulic control unit can separate.
Fuel Gauge May Read High, Risking Unexpected Stalls
The instrument cluster's Body Control Module can show a fuel level higher than the amount actually in the tank.
Cruise Control May Not Turn Off, Raising Crash Risk
Certain 2017-2019 Alfa Romeo Giulia and 2018-2019 Stelvio vehicles have Brake System Module software that may stop the driver from disabling Adaptive Cruise Control after the traction control system detects a specific wheel slip.
Coolant hose may leak, causing overheating and stalling
Certain 2018-2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio vehicles may have an engine cooling hose with inadequate webbing material, which can allow the hose to leak coolant.

What owners report
1. COMPONENT FAILED & INSPECTION: The transmission ground strap (uninsulated, bare braided copper cable) completely corroded/severed from environmental decay. This open ground circuit forced high engine-cranking currents into secondary low-voltage paths, causing an extreme thermal surge that melted and shorted out the main engine compartment wiring harness. Both failed components are preserved by the owner and are available for forensic inspection upon request. 2. SAFETY RISK: This manufacturing flaw causes a severe thermal fire hazard and an instantaneous, catastrophic loss of all vehicle propulsion, power steering, braking assist, and lighting systems while operating on public roadways. Th
I'm driving and all of a sudden - while I'm on the highway - a service engine pops up on the dashboard, and my car looses all power and drive ability. I immediately loose any gas/drive ability to accelerate or maintain legal speeds. I read about the recent recall with the fuel system and it's exactly what my car is experiencing, but somehow my VIN is both telling me that my car has a recall at one place, and then doesn't have a recall at another. It's confusing and I"m not sure what the database issue is because my car is experiencing the same exact feul system problem is that I"m reading on line for recall of my car's year.
There were no warning lights prior to driving and the vehicle stopping on the highway 2 times. Now the warning lights is constant and referencing the recall from 09/2025. Still no remedy for the recall. Mopar and the Alfa Romeo dealership have not contacted me regarding fixing the problem. A class action lawsuit needs to be filed
The contact owns a 2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio. The contact stated that while driving approximately 45 MPH, the vehicle suddenly stalled. On another occasion, the vehicle stalled while in a parking lot. The fuel warning light, the auto-stop warning light, and the traction control warning light were illuminated. The vehicle was initially towed to a relative's residence and later towed to a local dealer, where an unknown repair was performed; however, the stalling failure recurred. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed the failure as a faulty fuel module requiring replacement. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but offered no financial assi
The vehicle randomly has a yellow A! error code, then it loses power while driving, when going up a hill, sometimes barely makes it. No mechanics can figure this out and its a topic of complaints amongst numerous forums regarding this vehicle. Why isn't there a recall on this?
