ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The Electronic Throttle control and check engine lights came on suddenly, and then the car lost power. It would not turn off or turn on. The gear shifter did not work. It just stalled. Could not engage or disengage emergency brake. Steering wheel locked. I got it towed to Alfa Romeo of Glendale and they told me the fault was with a faulty fuel pressure sensor, which they replaced, telling me if the error recurred they would need to replace the fuel tank. The safety of everyone was put at risk because the car abruptly lost power and could not be moved off the road.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Fuel pump seems to go out intermittently. I get the electronic throttle control warning light and auto start not available warning light and then the car cannot be turned back on. After towing it home and letting it sit for a couple of days it will start again. It shut down once on a highway entrance ramp and I had to quickly pull over to avoid getting hit. Has occured 3 times since I bought it three years ago. A dealer did read the code for fuel pump. Could not reproduce at the service center. Car has not been inspected by manufacturer or police. Warning lights and messages do appear and the car does not accelerate properly and sometimes turns off.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
When going over road bumps or hitting a pothole, the headlight adjusters pop out of alignment and is unable to be adjusted. This is the second headlight replacement for the same issue after my first pair of headlights were replaced under a tech service bulletin. The replacement lights which should have fixed the issue did not fix the issue and I know have a second pair of headlights that need to be replaced. This is a safety hazard as the lights point upward into oncoming traffic when the adjuster/clip breaks internally.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
When attempting to close an open sunroof, something failed and the sunroof will no longer move. I had to drive 2 hours at highway speeds with the open panoramic sunroof, which caught a lot of air and which I was worried would blow off or be damaged by debris since it was now raised up and exposed. A mechanic has looked at the sunroof and is unable to operate it manually or electronically. Alfa Romeo does not have a manual method to close the sunroof in case of failure, and the electric motor only makes a flapping sound when used, as if the cable connecting the motor and the sunroof had snapped. There were no warnings or indications that anything was wrong or that any issues were developing. I normally do not use the sunroof and opened it for the first time when this happened. The cost to repair this issue seems excessive, on par with a full turbocharger replacement.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
While driving on the interstate, the car triggered a check engine light, reported that start/stop was unavailable, and ETC throttle needed servicing. Error codes report a turbocharger underboost. This is a known issue experienced by Alfa Romeo Giulia owners involving the turbo wastegate actuator. The actuator arm gets worn at the linkage to the wastegate, introducing play and reducing turbo pressure. There was no prior warning that this would happen, dealer did not confirm this issue until the second time the car was serviced for this issue, and the only stated solution is to pay for and replace the entire turbocharger.

This is a known issue experienced by Alfa Romeo Giulia owners involving the turbo wastegate actuator. The actuator arm gets worn at the linkage to the wastegate, introducing play and reducing turbo pressure. There was no prior warning that this would happen, dealer did not confirm this issue until the second time the car was serviced for this issue, and the only stated solution is to pay for and replace the entire turbocharger.
