ODI #11762135

Incident: September 1, 2026 · Filed: September 4, 2026

I had my vehicle towed to alpha dealership in Kansas City as that is the closest one now to me. Per the recall notice. There was no issue with car being towed down but Alfa Romeo will not tow it back home to my house In [XXX] where it was picked up. They said new rule of 150 miles. However the car is under warranty and it was a recall as well. They said that they determined that it’s a Courtesy to tow car down but not a guarantee be towed back. I said but car is under warranty and it also was a recall. They said I would need to make arrangements to get my car back home. I said wonder if I was broken down in the middle of nowhere. You wouldn’t tow my car to a dealership for warranty work or if you did it wouldn’t be guaranteed that it would be towed back to you. She stated correct. I was not very happy and extremely upset. I said wants the point of a warranty or even an extended warranty. No answer and no help was she . Her name was Jessica and supposedly a team leader for customer care. She said it was denied tow back because it wasn’t a necessary repair. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Incident: July 1, 2024 · Filed: May 27, 2025

I got my car has a lease July 2023. After notifying the sales rep that I will be taking my car to Alaska, he reassured me that Lithia dealership will be able to service my car. When I call to get my car worked on, no Lithia dealer can help me. Alfa Romeo customer service has confirmed they will NOT provide any assistance with me getting my recall fixed due to being in the state of Alaska. Even though I was promised Lithia would cover my type of vehicle. My car is my daily driver and now I have a safety issue. I’m terrified to drive. I feel completely unsafe in what I thought was my dream car. Alfa Romeo would not even reimburse if shipped my car to Seattle or I drove it there myself. I would be scared to have the car break down and I cannot fix it

Electrical System; Visibility/Wiper

ODI #11622877

Incident: October 15, 2024 · Filed: October 31, 2024

The back up camera has failed to display on the radio screen when the vehicle is placed in reverse on multiple occasions. The Alfa Romeo Stelvio has poor rear visibility due to a small rear window placed at a relatively shallow angle making the backup camera a necessary safety feature to safely operate the vehicle. The problem was reported to the dealer as part of another issue related to the radio locking up / rebooting due to software issues with a telematic module. Sometimes the radio will display an error message immediately when the car starts and then go to a black screen and sometimes the issue happens without warning. Turning off the vehicle and letting it sit will sometimes resolve the issue. I have offered to provide video evidence to the dealer and manufacturer but was told it was not necessary. The radio was replaced but the issue persists after the radio replacement.
