When owners complained

A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single owner can see from inside their own car.

Recalls on the 2024 Alfa Romeo Giulia

A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

Canada — Transport Canada

Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones.

Recall 2025673 47 units in Canada

Lights And Instruments

Issue: On certain vehicles, the wiring harness for the headlamps may not have been routed properly. As result, the wiring could become damaged by contact with the wheel arch lining. If this happens, the headlamps may stop working. Safety Risk: A loss of headlamps can reduce visibility and could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the wheel arch lining. The dealer will also inspect the headlamp wiring harness and re-route and/or repair it, as necessary.

Recall 2025533 3,468 units in Canada

Visual System

Issue: On certain vehicles, the radio may not have been manufactured properly and/or there could be a problem with the radio software. As a result, the rearview camera image may not display correctly or at all. Safety Risk: A rearview camera image that doesn't display correctly could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, replace the radio. The dealer will also update the radio software, as necessary.

Recall 2024548 314,717 units in Canada

Label

Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label does not list that there is no spare tire in both official languages. The label reads as "NONE" when it should read as "NONE / AUCUN". Canadian regulations require the information to be listed on the label in both English and French. Safety Risk: This error does not affect vehicle safety. Corrective Actions: This is not a recall. The company has corrected the tire and loading information label for all new vehicles.

Recall 2024390 8,387 units in Canada

Seats And Restraints

Issue: On certain vehicles, the connector for the driver and/or passenger-front seat belt buckle sensor(s) could fail and cause the seat airbag(s) to deploy with too much force. Note: This problem would cause the airbag warning light to display on the instrument panel or the seat belt reminder chime and warning light to stay on, even if you're buckled. Safety Risk: An airbag that deploys with too much force could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the connector for the driver and/or passenger-front seat belt buckle sensor(s).

Recall 2024379 686 units in Canada

Label

Issue: On certain vehicles, the tire and loading information label and/or the compliance label may list incorrect tire size and/or tire pressure information. This could lead you to inflate the tires incorrectly and/or install the wrong tires. These errors could lead to poor handling and/or a tire failure. Safety Risk: Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: FCA Canada will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the tire and loading information label and/or the compliance label.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Recall number NHTSA #25V-667 has not had a remedy for the past two months now. We have tried several dealers, including Alfa Romeo Daytona Beach, to solve the recall problem, but were given no solution at every attempt. We no longer feel safe driving this car with an enduring open safety recall and would like to file a complaint to Alfa Romeo. The recall is related to a software defect that does not allow the rear view camera to display, increasing the chance of an accident.

Miami, FL

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

While driving the car all of a sudden the sunroof completely exploded with no rocks hitting it or any other object. The explosion was so loud and unexpected that it caused me to swerve and nearly hit a car to my side and ahead of me. I attempted calling the closest dealership as well as premium care Alfa and they denied the warranty claim when the car was purchased brand new last year in 2024 and has under 15,000 miles. I believe this is a strong safety concern and at this point I would like to not even keep a car that could cause me to get into a fatal accident and while having no support whatsoever from the dealership or Alfa’s support.

WHEELS

Alfa Romeo issued a recall for the tire information sticker as it inaccurately reflected the correct tire pressure for the rear tires. The tire pressure listed on the original sticker listed the correct tire pressure lower than required. The low tire pressure resulted in the rear tires failing prematurely and several thousand miles before the front tires. Even though the tires were low, the TPMS did not indicate that the tire pressure was lower than required.

WHEELS

Vehicle was issued with the incorrect tire pressure information on the vehicle information sticker. It was recalled by Alfa Romeo as the sticker read the required tire pressure was 35PSI. The new sticker reflects an updated tire pressure of 39 PSI for the rear tires. The low tire pressure caused the rear tires to wear our prematurely and they are now in need of replacement.
