2021 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA Complaints and Recall Information

The 2021 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA has 1 complaint and 9 recalls filed with NHTSA. The complaint involves the front panoramic sunroof suddenly shattering while the vehicle was in motion, scattering glass shards inside and outside the vehicle and creating a loud explosion-like sound that startled the driver.

Common Issues

• Sunroof shattering. The front panoramic sunroof can suddenly break without warning during operation, causing glass to scatter inside and outside the vehicle and producing a loud noise that may startle the driver.

There are nine recalls affecting various systems on the 2021 ALFA ROMEO GIULIA. These recalls primarily involve the fuel system, seat belts, air bags, hydraulic brakes, and labeling related to tire information.

Recalls

• Fuel system components. (NHTSA Recall 24V306000 and 21V878000) A total of 11,680 vehicles including the 2021 Giulia are affected by defects in the fuel line sensor housing that may crack and leak fuel. Fuel leaks can cause engine stalls or fires if an ignition source is present. Dealers will replace or inspect and replace the sensor housing free of charge. No "Do Not Drive" or "Park Outside" advisories have been issued.
• Tire information labels. (NHTSA Recall 24V512000) Approximately 9,037 vehicles have incorrect tire pressure and size information on placards and manufacturer labels. This defect violates Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 110 and could lead to improper tire inflation or use of incorrect tires. FCA will mail corrected labels, which owners can have installed at dealers free of charge.
• Front seat belts. (NHTSA Recall 24V510000) Over 337,000 vehicles are affected by possible improper connections in the seat belt buckle switch sensors. This may prevent front air bags from deploying as intended, increasing injury risk. Dealers will repair the sensor connections at no cost.
• Front air bags. (NHTSA Recall 24V510000) The same vehicles as the seat belt recall share the risk of front air bags failing to deploy properly due to sensor connection issues. Repairs will be made free of charge.
• Anti-lock Brake System (ABS). (NHTSA Recall 21V309000) Nine 2020-2021 Giulia vehicles face a defect where hard braking can cause the ABS Hydraulic Control Unit rotor shaft to separate. This leads to loss of ABS, reduced braking assist, and increased crash risk. Dealers will replace the ABS HCU free of charge.
