November 26th my car went into LOMP mode. But then restored itself. December 3rd my car went into LOMP mode again and had not recovered along with a slew of ALARMS. I have been using uber and rental cars since this issue. Highly likely this is a fuel pump issue but unable to determine as the authorized shop is 2hours away and the car will not make it there. I need a remedy I have been out of a car for months now and the recall has no remedy!

Subject: Safety Complaint – Open Recall with No Remedy Available I am filing a safety complaint regarding my vehicle, which currently has an open recall with no available remedy. Manufacturer Recall Number: 93C NHTSA Recall Number: 25V-586 VIN: [XXX] After learning about this recall, I have experienced the exact issues described. When the vehicle is exposed to very hot or very cold temperatures, the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) warning light illuminates, along with the check engine light and the auto stop-start warning light. When this occurs, the vehicle begins to sputter and loses power. It will not properly a-ccelerate and significantly reduces speed while driving. This creates a serious safety hazard, especially in traffic or at highway speeds. A sudden loss of power or inability to accelerate could easily result in a collision, potentially causing serious injury or death. There is currently no remedy available for this recall, yet the vehicle remains in operation on public roads. I do not feel the vehicle is safe to drive under these conditions. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this issue further and require the manufacturer to provide an immediate and effective remedy. Owners should not be placed in a position where they must operate an unsafe vehicle while waiting for a repair solution. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's well known by Alfa Romeo/Chrystler, Stelvio owners and certified Alfa Romeo mechanics that the O-ring in the oil send/receive/turbo lines is faulty. Spewing oil into the engine compartment and engine components and accessories i.e., belts, brake components creating a major liability for Alfa Romeo. The smoke from burning oil is overwhelming and visible inside the cabin throughout the interior of this car. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD TO ALL ALFA ROMEO STELVIO OWNERS WITH THE 2018 MODEL.

I am submitting this complaint due to ongoing unresolved safety issues with my 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio, VIN: ZASFAKAN6J7B95955. The vehicle has an open and unresolved safety recall under Recall Number 25V-586 / Manufacturer Recall 93C relating to the fuel delivery module (FDM), which poses a risk of engine shutdown and potential crash without warning. According to the notice, no remedy is currently available, yet I continue to experience serious electrical problems that align with the warning signs outlined. Specifically, my headlights have been flickering on and off while driving, creating hazardous conditions—this occurred again as recently as January 26, 2026. These issues are not isolated. I have evidence via Carfax history that the vehicle had documented electrical problems dating back to 2019. Despite notifying FCA (now Stellantis) and being offered a low-value settlement ($4,000), I formally rejected that offer due to the unresolved safety risks, recall status, and prior documented issues. A copy of the official recall letter from FCA US LLC and NHTSA status (marked “Recall Incomplete, remedy not yet available”) are attached. At this time, I’m pursuing legal action under California’s Lemon Law and request that this complaint be recorded and escalated as this vehicle continues to pose a serious safety risk on public roads.

I am submitting this complaint regarding a manufacturer safety recall affecting my vehicle that has not been remedied and is creating a safety concern. My vehicle is subject to NHTSA Safety Recall 25V-586 (Alfa Romeo Recall 93C) involving a defective fuel pump / fuel delivery module that may cause loss of drive power while driving. I contacted an authorized Alfa Romeo dealership, and they confirmed that my vehicle is affected by this recall. However, the dealership informed me that Alfa Romeo has not yet released a final repair remedy and therefore they cannot perform the recall repair at this time. I contacted Alfa Romeo Customer Care and was advised that the dealership could run diagnostics and potentially perform a temporary or interim repair related to the fuel pump issue. When I relayed this information to the dealership, I was told that I would be required to pay out of pocket for parts and labor and wait for reimbursement once Alfa Romeo releases a final recall solution. I do not believe it is appropriate or compliant with safety recall requirements for a customer to be required to prepay for parts and labor related to a confirmed manufacturer safety defect. This recall involves a loss of engine power, which poses a safety risk while driving. At this time, no no-cost repair, interim fix, or alternative transportation has been offered, and I am being placed in a position where a known safety defect remains unresolved unless I pay out of pocket. I am requesting NHTSA review this matter, as the recall has been acknowledged but not properly supported with a no-cost remedy or alternative solution for the affected consumer.
