30 recalls across 9 model years
The Alfa Romeo Giulia has 30 recalls spanning 2017 through 2025, with the most serious recent issue being a seatbelt buckle sensor connector on 2017–2024 models that can prevent the front airbag from deploying in a crash.
On 2024 models, a misrouted headlight wiring harness can chafe against the wheel arch lining and cause the headlights to fail entirely. The rearview camera on 2020–2025 models can display a corrupted image or go blank while backing up due to a defect in the camera's circuit board or software.
Stepping back into the 2019–2021 range, the brake pedal on 2019–2020 vehicles can detach from the brake booster if the connecting fastener was not properly assembled, resulting in complete loss of braking. On 2020–2021 models, hard braking can cause the anti-lock brake system's hydraulic control unit shaft to separate, reducing braking assist and disabling anti-lock function. The fuel line sensor housing on 2020–2021 vehicles can crack and leak fuel, which can stall the engine or ignite near a heat source.
The 2020 model year has a rear brake disc that can fracture during normal driving, reducing braking performance. A separate issue on 2020 models involves the rearview camera failing to display correctly. There is also a tire load rating concern on certain 2020 vehicles where tires with an insufficient load rating were installed, raising the risk of handling problems or tire failure under a full load.
On 2017–2019 models, the fuel pump can fail and cut drive power without warning. The adaptive cruise control on 2017–2019 vehicles can become impossible to cancel after a traction control event, leaving the vehicle accelerating or maintaining speed without driver input. The 2017–2018 models with 2.0L engines can experience engine misfires that overheat the catalytic converter, damaging nearby wiring and raising the risk of fire or stall. On 2017–2018 AWD models specifically, a coolant hose clamp can wear through a brake fluid line, allowing fluid to drip onto the exhaust and ignite. Contaminated brake fluid on 2018 models can degrade the braking system over time. The 2018–2019 body control module can display a fuel level higher than actual, which can lead to an unexpected stall. Carbon ceramic brake-equipped vehicles from 2017–2020 are subject to excessive clamping force that can fracture the rotors and sharply reduce stopping ability.
The 2017 model year carries several additional issues: a fuel delivery module failure that can cut engine power while driving, a seatbelt buckle sensor connector that can cause the side airbags to deploy with excessive force, and an adaptive cruise control software defect that can prevent the driver from canceling the system. Several label recalls also affect 2017 and 2017–2024 vehicles, where incorrect tire pressure or size information on the placard can lead to improper tire inflation or the wrong tires being installed.
