Alfa Romeo Stelvio Super Review and Road Test

Great review!

I am lucky enough to be able to work on these cars at my job! Although they are a stunning design, have decent engine power and torque, they do not come without their share of problems.

We commonly see these things in for an unbelievable amount RRTs and recalls. First week these things showed up to our dealership, we replaced an engine. Depending on what model you purchase, seat switches go bad a lot, we see a lot of washer fluid systems fail, steering racks, the list continues.

Not all is bad with Alfa though, the Quadrifoglio that you had mentioned is a monster. I've had to burnish the breaks on a couple of them (break from 70 MPH to 40 MPH then repeat 25 times.) They are extremely quick. The dial in the middle has 3 settings on all guilias, but the quad has an extra setting for race. When race is turned on, it turns off all stability systems and opens valves in the exhaust to great a far more aggressive sound.

Overall they are very nice cars! Although, I would expect them to be in the dealership quite a bit.

Keep up the quality content!

Sounds like an adventure working on and driving all those cars, FCA cars are certainly fun, and have the racing calibre and looks to match.
