There is no fix for this. The fuel pump foe the Stelvio is recalled almost a year ago. The engine light comes on and the car is undriveable. I have paid for 2 new fuel pumps and control module (out of pocket) , and the check engine light will come back after a few weeks. The car is basically inoperable and bricked because of this, and Alfa has not resolved it. They should not be allowed to drag a recall out for years while owners suffer, and are in danger. Please hold Alfa Romeo accountable. It just happened again today (7/31/26) while my wife was on the highway. This is after paying thousands and thousands to resolve this whole Alfa Romeo doesn’t do anything to fix it. We are out of options.

I was told I was on a priority list to have this recall fixed. My Stelvio is virtually undrivable. It continues to lose power when acceleration and goes into limp mode. I refuse to take the Stelvio onto the highway as it poses a danger to myself and passengers. This recall has been active for well over a year with a continual push back on the remedy date. Recall 93C (NHTSA 25V-586) causes a failure in the fuel delivery system which compromises acceleration and will frequently, without warning lose power as well as trip the a throttle delivery system warning light. This is a freaking joke to them. They refuse to take ownership over this recall and people are going to get into accidents.

THIS IS A FOLLOW UP TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT, 11737275 AS THE VEHICLE HAS NOW DEGRADED TO PERSISTENT ACTIVE STALLING. This is a follow-up to my previous complaint 11737275 as the vehicle has now degraded to persistent active stalling. The failed component is the fuel pump assembly under active safety recall NHTSA 25V586 (Mopar 93C), and the un-remedied vehicle is completely available for physical inspection upon request. Safety is severely compromised as the vehicle experiences extreme drops in RPM, engine choking, and sudden stalling immediately after fueling because the failing, recalled pump cannot maintain proper pressure to compensate for standard EVAP canister vapor purging cycles. This dangerous driveability defect has been formally brought to Criswell Alfa Romeo, where service staff confirmed the failures but stated they cannot perform the remedy because the redesigned factory replacement component is currently unavailable. While the vehicle remains open for full review by any designated authority, it has not yet undergone formal inspection by the manufacturer, local law enforcement, or insurance investigators. The symptoms first manifested in 2021 immediately before the safety recall campaign became public knowledge, and the vehicle has suffered from these chronic, hazardous failures ever since. The manufacturer's technical summary states that 2017–2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio vehicles may experience a loss of motive power due to a heat-susceptible fuel delivery module (FDM) losing flow rate, which FCA US will remedy by conducting a voluntary safety recall to replace the FDM with a newly updated Pump Electronic Module (PEM). My vehicle is a 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio TI.

My vehicle has been subject of multiple recalls, however the current recall is a significant one and has been pending for months with no end in sight. I am concerned The manufacturer and dealers are not taking this seriously and the delay is causing additional damage to my vehicle. Additionally quickly googling my vehicle will show that it has fuel pump and acceleration jerking and lag issues that are extremely, extremely, common and troubling. I am also still having the service engine soon issues described in recalls and other forums related to throttle cable. Either none of this has been addressed by the manufacturer or the repairs so far have not been sufficient if it is still so common. On behalf of all Stelvio owners I demand these recalls and issues be addressed in a timely manner. This is going to cost us additional grief, safety issues, and repair costs. The biggest being my safety and my family's safety when we are riding in this vehicle, the acceleration issues are very noticeable and are getting worse. The symptoms are -exactly-what is described online and also as part of the recall. I don't even have the option to get it fixed there is no parts to fix available. This is a very nice vehicle, but this is getting old not having repairs done and the dealers running out of parts etc. Waiting months and months for repairs. - Fiat, Alfa Romeo and their dealerships do not seem to be taking this seriously - at all, they should have pride in their products like the owners do when we buy them. I want my Stelvio to be the best it can be, fully safe, and fully functional.

I was driving and the car gave an error showing service throttle position. Car went into limp mode. I pulled over out of traffic. Car drove but very slow. I tried to drive back home but the car died while I was in the turning lane. It would not start again. I used my autel scanner and received codes, p01ca, p008a, p00c6, p0300, p0303, p0302. I believe it is the fuel pump and fuel pump module causing the car issues. I believe it is the 93c recall for this car. It would have been very unsafe if I was driving on the highway and this happen. The car is currently at Champion Alfa dealership. I’m waiting for the service department to get back to me. I hope the dealership or Alfa Romeo will cover the repairs cost since it is a pending recall.

NHTSA safety recall 25V-586 was issued on September 9, 2025. It has now been eight months without a resolution from the manufacturer, and per the FCA recall notice (accessed at [XXX] ) "The Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) on your vehicle may contain internal parts that can be affected by heat, which can reduce fuel flow and lead to a loss of drive power while driving. A loss of drive power can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning." This is a critical safety issue and the lengthy delay in providing a remedy puts lives at risk.

I took the vehicle to Auto Zone for a basic diagnostic and it came back that the fuel pump is failing and defective. I only recently purchased the vehicle and found that there’s a recall on it for this reason. The yellow check engine light came on and it stalled while driving home.

Incident

May 9, 2026

I experienced an unexpected Loss of Motive Power (LOMP) event. Late afternoon traffic was fast, estimate 75-80 MPH. I attempted to change lanes get to the righthand shoulder and was very nearly involved in a high-speed collision with a semi-petroleum tank truck. He applied his brakes to avoid hitting me and started to jackknife, but regained control and continued. The truck missed by inches. At this point I had NO remaining power and was essentially coasting until I managed to cross the remaining two lanes of traffic to the shoulder emergency lane. I reset the error codes and continued home with no further occurrences. The incident produced the following warning lamps: Electronic Throttle Control Failure, Start/Stop System Failure and Check Engine, then a few seconds later the Limp Mode/LOMP event. I carry an OBD Scanning Tool with me to be able to clear the error codes when I encounter them. They are typically a cascading event that can result in LOMP. I have experienced a total of 26 of these error lamp events since 4/19/22 which have resulted in 3 LOMP's. The remaining 23 events I was able to reset before the inevitable LOMP. This is the first LOMP that nearly caused a fatal accident, the remainder I was able to safely find a place to stop to perform the resets. There is an active Manufacturer Recall Number93C, NHTSA Recall Number25V-586 that may cover this issue. The Recall Status is "Incomplete, remedy not yet available." The Alfa Romeo dealership has noted the P0191-00 error and replaced the fuel pressure sensor on 2/23/23, but this did not solve the problem. Owner's forums, and now the Manufacturer/NHTSA recall have reported this as a known problem, so I have been clearing my own error codes in order to at least have a car to drive. In my mind, this nuisance has now become a potentially very dangerous condition.
