I have found a huge barrier to getting my brakes serviced as Alfa Romeo makes it impossible for an independent mechanic to acquire the necessary brake hardware to keep my car safely on the road. 2024 Alfa Romeo Tonale already has a formal federal safety recall regarding a brake pedal collapse defect. I am concerned that my vehicle, having less than 33k miles, already needs front and rear brakes and rotors even though I do not drive it in an aggressive or rough manner.

Component/System: Brake system – specifically brake pedal assembly / braking performance. Description: The vehicle experienced recurring issues with braking performance, including inconsistent or reduced deceleration during braking. Availability for inspection: The vehicle is currently in my possession and available for inspection upon request. The braking issue reduced the vehicle’s ability to slow or stop as expected during normal driving conditions. This created a safety risk to myself and other drivers and contributed to a rear-end collision. Although no one was injured, the inability to decelerate as expected increased the risk of a crash without prior warning. The issue was reported to an authorized dealer on three separate occasions over the past year. The dealer was unable to fully resolve the braking concern, and the issue persisted after each visit. Additionally, a safety recall was issued on December 9, 2025 (NHTSA Recall Number 25V-846) identifying a brake pedal assembly defect that may collapse during braking. The vehicle has been inspected by an authorized dealer multiple times for the braking concern. The vehicle was also inspected by insurance representatives following the collision. Repairs have not yet been completed pending further documentation and recall-related review. No specific warning lamps or messages were observed. The primary symptom was inconsistent or insufficient braking response during normal operation. These symptoms began prior to the first dealer visit and continued intermittently despite multiple repair attempts.
