Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling 719 vehicles, specifically 2017-2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia and 2018-2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio models equipped with carbon ceramic matrix brakes. The brake system in these vehicles may exert excessive clamping force during certain driving maneuvers, which can cause the brake rotor to fracture. This defect leads to a sudden decrease in braking performance, and dealers will provide a free software update to the brake system module to resolve the issue.
If the brake rotor fractures due to excessive pressure, the vehicle's ability to slow down or stop quickly is significantly reduced, which increases the risk of a crash.
