“I purchased this vehicle at the end of may 2017, after putting on about 500 mi within 4 weeks, a check engine light came on, I took it to the dealership, they kept it overnight,looked at it, and called the following day & said there was something loose that needed to be tightened and that the car was ready for pick up. I drove the car and parked it in my garage. …”

“While on the highway stuck in traffic, it was a stop and go at very slow speeds. When resuming the acceleration (while in normal from the dna ). I slowly began to accelerate, when I pressed the breaks the feeling on the pedal was abnormal and the car did not stop causing me to hit the vehicle in front of me. It felt as if the breaks did not fully engage, the car just kept going while only pressing the breaks which I repeat again felt as if they did not fully engage. All this happened while going at a very low speed no more than 20mph. No one was hurt as all this happened at a very slow speed. …”

“Driving along the highway the car completely shuts down and goes into limp mode. No power steering, no brakes, nothing. Absolutely hazardous and a safety issue. No way to start the car. No way to move the car unless owner goes under the car with a specific tool and unlocks the breaks manually. This is the second time it happened to be. I belong to a group of car enthusiasts which own the same model and several have reported to have the exact same issue.”

NHTSA complaint #11338023, filed 2020-07, 19,120 miles

“I am filing a complaint in regard to recall 93c for my 2017 Alfa Romeo. The dealership/manufacturer has failed to provide me with a fix, parts or even just a loaner car due to the safety hazard. My car has gone limp mode several times on the highway at speeds of 70mph. This is unacceptable.”
