2019 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA Complaints

1. The fuel delivery/fuel pressure system is malfunctioning. The vehicle has experienced fuel-pressure related diagnostic trouble codes, loss of power, stalling, and limp mode. The fuel pressure sensor was replaced, but the same diagnostic codes and symptoms continued. The symptoms are consistent with the fuel delivery module/fuel pump defect described in NHTSA recall 25V586. The vehicle and affected components are available for inspection upon request. 2. The vehicle repeatedly enters limp mode and has experienced loss of power, stalling, and severe shifting problems, especially with low fuel. I have had to drive 20–30 miles on the freeway while unable to accelerate or shift normally, nearly causing multiple accidents around traffic and semi-trucks. I regularly transport my family and children, greatly increasing the safety risk from an unexpected loss of power or stalling. 3. No. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. However, the vehicle has experienced repeated loss of power, stalling, limp mode, and shifting problems, along with the same two fuel-pressure related diagnostic trouble codes. The fuel pressure sensor was replaced, but the codes and symptoms remained. 4. No. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or an insurance representative. 5. Yes. The check-engine light appeared with codes P018D and P018B. The vehicle subsequently experienced limp mode, loss of power, stalling, and severe shifting issues, especially with low fuel. Replacing the fuel pressure sensor did not resolve the codes or symptoms.

The vehicle is subject to Alfa Romeo Safety Recall 93C (NHTSA Campaign 25V586) for a defective Fuel Delivery Module. The safety defect is an active, un-remedied hazard. The vehicle is currently located at [Name of Alfa Romeo Dealership] for an official diagnosis and is available for inspection. The vehicle has an active safety recall for sudden, catastrophic engine stalling at highway speeds due to fuel pump warping. Because the manufacturer has not provided a remedy or a safe alternative transport, I am forced to choose between driving a vehicle with an acknowledged highway-stalling hazard or being completely deprived of my transportation. The vehicle cannot be safely operated in commerce until Recall 93C is performed. The vehicle is currently undergoing inspection by the manufacturer's authorized technicians at the Alfa Romeo dealership. It has also been reviewed administratively through a claim with the National Center for Dispute Settlement (NCDS), which was denied based on mileage despite the active federal safety recall. The vehicle displayed an "Excessive Oil" warning and experienced heavy smoking from the engine bay beginning around June 25, 2026. While the vehicle has also been undergoing cooling system repairs, the presence of these severe engine warnings and thermal symptoms creates an immediate escalation of risk when combined with the active 93C fuel pump recall.
