NOTE: Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this
recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.
These dealer instructions apply to the following VINs. The remainder of VINs
in this campaign will be launching at a later date.
IMPORTANT: Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle
inventory. Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these
vehicles before retail delivery. Dealers should also consider this requirement to
apply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in for
service. Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.

Subject
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) on about 9 of
the above vehicles may have a missing or partially missing weld of the rotor to the
shaft of the brushless motor. During a hard braking maneuver, the ABS HCU rotor
and shaft may separate, which could lead to a reduction in braking assistance and
loss of ABS functionality. Full mechanical braking is still available. The loss of
braking assistance and ABS functionality may reduce the overall braking
performance which can cause a vehicle crash without prior warning.
Repair
Replace the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU).
Alternate Transportation
Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner
in a loaner vehicle if the vehicle must be held overnight.
Parts Information

campaign, part orders will be processed on the dealer's behalf. Upon identification
of a VIN included in this recall, please send an email to
[email protected] with the following details. An order will be
placed and expedited upon approval.

DEALERSHIP INSTRUCTIONS
Please reference Safety Recall Y24.
Dear [Name],
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
FCA has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain [2020 and
2021 Model Year (GA) Alfa Romeo Giulia and 2019 through 2021 Model Year (GU) Alfa
Romeo Stelvio] vehicles.
It is extremely important to take steps now to repair your vehicle to ensure the safety of you and
your passengers.
WHY DOES MY VEHICLE NEED REPAIRS?
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) on your vehicle [1] may
have a missing or partially missing weld of the rotor to the shaft of the brushless motor. During
a hard braking maneuver, the ABS HCU rotor and shaft may separate, which could lead to a
reduction in braking assistance and loss of ABS functionality. Full mechanical braking is still
available. The loss of braking assistance and ABS functionality may reduce the
overall braking performance which can cause a vehicle crash without prior
warning.
HOW DO I RESOLVE THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE?
FCA will repair your vehicle [2] free of charge (parts and labor). To do this, your dealer
will replace the suspect ABS HCU. The estimated repair time is 3 hours. In addition, your dealer
will require your vehicle for proper check-in, preparation, and check-out during your visit,
which require more time. Your time is important to us, so we recommend that you schedule a
service appointment to minimize your inconvenience. Please bring this letter with you to your
dealership.
TO SCHEDULE YOUR FREE REPAIR,
CALL YOUR ALFA ROMEO DEALER TODAY
WHAT IF I ALREADY PAID TO HAVE THIS REPAIR COMPLETED?
If you have already experienced this specific condition and have paid to have it repaired, you
may visit www.fcarecallreimbursement.com to submit your reimbursement request online. [3]
Once we receive and verify the required documents, reimbursement will be sent to you within
60 days. If you have had previous repairs performed and/or already received reimbursement,
you may still need to have the recall repair performed.
We apologize for any inconvenience, but are sincerely concerned about your safety. Thank you
for your attention to this important matter.
