FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
There is no fix for this. The fuel pump foe the Stelvio is recalled almost a year ago. The engine light comes on and the car is undriveable. I have paid for 2 new fuel pumps and control module (out of pocket) , and the check engine light will come back after a few weeks. The car is basically inoperable and bricked because of this, and Alfa has not resolved it. They should not be allowed to drag a recall out for years while owners suffer, and are in danger. Please hold Alfa Romeo accountable. It just happened again today (7/31/26) while my wife was on the highway. This is after paying thousands and thousands to resolve this whole Alfa Romeo doesn’t do anything to fix it. We are out of options.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I was told I was on a priority list to have this recall fixed. My Stelvio is virtually undrivable. It continues to lose power when acceleration and goes into limp mode. I refuse to take the Stelvio onto the highway as it poses a danger to myself and passengers. This recall has been active for well over a year with a continual push back on the remedy date. Recall 93C (NHTSA 25V-586) causes a failure in the fuel delivery system which compromises acceleration and will frequently, without warning lose power as well as trip the a throttle delivery system warning light. This is a freaking joke to them. They refuse to take ownership over this recall and people are going to get into accidents.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THIS IS A FOLLOW UP TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT, 11737275 AS THE VEHICLE HAS NOW DEGRADED TO PERSISTENT ACTIVE STALLING. This is a follow-up to my previous complaint 11737275 as the vehicle has now degraded to persistent active stalling. The failed component is the fuel pump assembly under active safety recall NHTSA 25V586 (Mopar 93C), and the un-remedied vehicle is completely available for physical inspection upon request. Safety is severely compromised as the vehicle experiences extreme drops in RPM, engine choking, and sudden stalling immediately after fueling because the failing, recalled pump cannot maintain proper pressure to compensate for standard EVAP canister vapor purging cycles. This dangerous driveability defect has been formally brought to Criswell Alfa Romeo, where service staff confirmed the failures but stated they cannot perform the remedy because the redesigned factory replacement component is currently unavailable. While the vehicle remains open for full review by any designated authority, it has not yet undergone formal inspection by the manufacturer, local law enforcement, or insurance investigators. The symptoms first manifested in 2021 immediately before the safety recall campaign became public knowledge, and the vehicle has suffered from these chronic, hazardous failures ever since. The manufacturer's technical summary states that 2017–2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio vehicles may experience a loss of motive power due to a heat-susceptible fuel delivery module (FDM) losing flow rate, which FCA US will remedy by conducting a voluntary safety recall to replace the FDM with a newly updated Pump Electronic Module (PEM). My vehicle is a 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio TI.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Engine light came on. I was told by the first dealership that the coolant was mixing with the engine oil. There was also a vehicle at the shop there for the same issue. after doing some research online, it appears that this is a bigger issue. I bought the car at 20,000 miles and this began happening around 52000 miles. Given the low mileage, this is something that should not be happening to a newer car.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
My vehicle has been subject of multiple recalls, however the current recall is a significant one and has been pending for months with no end in sight. I am concerned The manufacturer and dealers are not taking this seriously and the delay is causing additional damage to my vehicle. Additionally quickly googling my vehicle will show that it has fuel pump and acceleration jerking and lag issues that are extremely, extremely, common and troubling. I am also still having the service engine soon issues described in recalls and other forums related to throttle cable. Either none of this has been addressed by the manufacturer or the repairs so far have not been sufficient if it is still so common. On behalf of all Stelvio owners I demand these recalls and issues be addressed in a timely manner. This is going to cost us additional grief, safety issues, and repair costs. The biggest being my safety and my family's safety when we are riding in this vehicle, the acceleration issues are very noticeable and are getting worse. The symptoms are -exactly-what is described online and also as part of the recall. I don't even have the option to get it fixed there is no parts to fix available. This is a very nice vehicle, but this is getting old not having repairs done and the dealers running out of parts etc. Waiting months and months for repairs. - Fiat, Alfa Romeo and their dealerships do not seem to be taking this seriously - at all, they should have pride in their products like the owners do when we buy them. I want my Stelvio to be the best it can be, fully safe, and fully functional.

ENGINE
Back in December 2025 my engine light had come on, upon bringing it to the dealership I had found out that the engine oil and the coolant were mixing. A repair was done to stop this from happening three months later the same issue happened only the previous dealership was no longer servicing Alpha Romeos so I brought it to the only dealer left a mass. I was told that they botched the repair at the previous dealer. Now, three months later from then my engine light is back on again and the same thing is happening. but since neither truly actually repaired the issue now, I’m being told that there’s an issue with my engine. From the beginning when I first brought it to the dealership, this was not an issue. I was actually told that the engine was not misfiring at all, and the engine appeared to be good.My car was not the only one there for this issue so clearly this is a known issue. I also began looking online and realized that there are a lot of people that have this issue so I did bring it to Alfa Romeo‘s attention I feel like at this point the dealerships are making it worse because they’re not fixing the actual issue. I’m also being told this time around that, it was only a temporary fix which I was never told the first two times that they fixed it. No vehicle with 50,000 miles should be having these types of issues. I feel like there is a bigger issue that needs to be addressed within the manufacturer.

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?

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I was driving and the car gave an error showing service throttle position. Car went into limp mode. I pulled over out of traffic. Car drove but very slow. I tried to drive back home but the car died while I was in the turning lane. It would not start again. I used my autel scanner and received codes, p01ca, p008a, p00c6, p0300, p0303, p0302. I believe it is the fuel pump and fuel pump module causing the car issues. I believe it is the 93c recall for this car. It would have been very unsafe if I was driving on the highway and this happen. The car is currently at Champion Alfa dealership. I’m waiting for the service department to get back to me. I hope the dealership or Alfa Romeo will cover the repairs cost since it is a pending recall.
