Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
While driving at approximately 45mph, the car was suddenly dropped into "limp mode" which caused a rapid deceleration, loss of power, and required pulling onto the shoulder as the car refused to accelerate. In addition, the check engine light illuminated, along with warnings that the start / stop system was unavailable and to service the electronic throttle. Restarting the car did not fix the condition. It's also important to note the car had approximately half a tank of gas. When serviced, the technicians reported that the P008A and P062A were present, indicating an issue with the fuel pump. The fuel pump was replaced (see attached files).

Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The fuel pump failed while driving the vehicle resulting in the car suddenly stopping while on a busy highway. We were nearly read-ended. After attempting to start the vehicle several times and witnessing several service lights go off, I called the police to have my vehicle towed and taken to the dealership. Their service department fixed the fuel pump, but charged me for the expense even though I've heard from others that this is a known issue (see [XXX] ), once resulting in an accident. I believe this should be a required recall item as it could have caused a serious accident. I would have expected this to be covered by the manufacturer. Contacted their customer care department led to an unacceptable result. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
While driving on the highway for about two hours, the engine lost power and went into neutral. The engine light and "Service Electronic Throttle Control" came on. The car stalled with vehicles behind me. I got to the shoulder and tried to restart the car. It would try to crank, but the engine would not start. I used a code reader and found codes related to engine misfires and low pressure fuel system (P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303, P008A, P0087).

Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The Car stalled while I was driving on [XXX] on the Virginia Eastern Shore, ~4 miles north of Eastville. I had to pull into the emergency stopping line and call AAA/State Police. Check engine light was on and "Service electronic throttle control" message was on. When that happened, the car fuel gauge indicated that I still had ~60 miles. I had to call AAA and place the car on a flat bed. I also called the Virginia State police and they dispatched a car. The Officer staid with me until the AAA tow truck arrived and the car was loaded for transportation. I was able to start the car the following day, and check the fault codes. I had the following Fault codes: P008A Low pressure Fuel System - Pressure too Low. P007 - Fuel Rail/System pressure Too lox Bank 1 P00C6 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low - Engine Cranking Bank1. The car seems to be running normally now, although I have not driven it for a long distance. I am planning to take it to the dealer for service on a flat bed.

Defect Description:
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I was driving home from Sacramento back to the bay. I pulled off the freeway to a stop light. started to drive across the intersection and the car just turned off. no warning or anything. lost all power and the dash lit up with alerts. Barely had enough speed to pull over to the Toyota dealership driveway. Car wouldn't start and it didn't sound good when it died. Best part is there is no way to put the car in neutral if it doesn't start(without a special tool and the ability to get under the car). Had it towed over the Altamont to my parents. Got there and the thing started (with a bunch of warning lights) and had it just enough to get it off the truck. Brought it to my friends dad around the corner who was able to diagnose it down to a faulty fuel pump with all his equipment and code readers. He replaced the pump and now it works fine. Seeing there's rumors of a recall against Alfa Romeo for these fuel pumps I wanted to document it. It could have been much worse if I was going freeway speeds and the car just shut off like it did. There was 0 warning or signs. Attached the price of the replacement Pump and O-Ring. Doesn't show labor costs to my friends dad.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The implementation of Intelligent Battery System (IBS) in the vehicle causes a constant state of undercharged battery even when the vehicle is driven daily. Due to undercharged battery, several safety components, such as heated exterior mirrors and rear window defroster do not work, which creates a safety issue. This is a widely reported problem by owners on Alfa Romeo forums. No warning lamps or messages illuminate to alert that the battery charge status is not adequate. I have recently experienced this issue, my rear window defroster stopped working and I wasn't able to see through the rear window. Recharging the battery will make the window defroster work for a while again.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I have now learned the hard way that there is a design defect with this car. It appears that water runs down the front cowl into an area near the fresh air intake. Particularly bad if you have the car running as it goes through a car wash, or if snow accumulates on the windshield and melts. Water is then sucked into the air intake and leaks into the passenger side footwell and gets into the electronics (including the area where the body control module is kept). Many owners have reported this issue on forums. Alfa Romeo needs to correct their design and should fix every Giulia that they have produced. Loss of electrical power or control of car can cause an accident or impact safety features.
