Does a recall affect your Alfa Romeo Brera?

Not every Alfa Romeo Brera is affected. Each recall covers cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, which DVSA’s file does not list in full. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check with its registration, or ask the manufacturer or a dealer, who can check the VIN.

Reduction of braking assistance may occur

Launched 13 April 2009 DVSA recall R/2009/028 Manufacturer ref. 5338

Defect
Brake pedal could be stiff to depress requiring more input from the driver to stop as a result of insufficient brake assistance caused by low vacuum at low engine speed while at high altitude immediately after starting.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to fit an electric vacuum pump to supplement the engine vacuum system.
Vehicles affected
100 across everything the recall covers
Built
1 Jan 2007 to 29 Feb 2008

2007 3 recalls

Brakes may fail

Launched 7 December 2007 DVSA recall R/2007/174

Defect
Due to the possibility of a fault in the production process the flexible rubber brake hoses may not have been correctly vulcanised. As a consequence may partially or totally restrict the internal flow of the brake hydraulic fluid. Should this happen a reduction in efficiency during braking would occur.
Remedy
Recalled vehicles will have the hoses checked to identify if they are within the affected batch. If this is the case they will be replaced with quality assured items.
Vehicles affected
687 across everything the recall covers
Built
20 Nov 2007 to 22 Nov 2007

Possible loss of vehicle control

Launched 27 July 2007 DVSA recall R/2007/092

Defect
Oil may leak from the Power Take Off Unit which may cause the unit to seize and possible loss of vehicle control.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to apply sealant to the core plug and to fit a retaining clip.
Vehicles affected
610 across everything the recall covers
Built
1 Nov 2005 to 28 Feb 2007

Braking efficiency will be reduced

Launched 18 April 2007 DVSA recall R/2007/047

Defect
A reflective heat shield may be incorrectly fitted or missing. This could lead to the servo pipe being damaged and the loss of brake servo assistance.
Remedy
Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to ensure correct fitment of the reflective sheath.
Vehicles affected
51 Brera vehicles
Built
1 Jun 2006 to 31 Aug 2006

January 1992 to September 2026 4 recalls matched to this model 15 September 2026
  • Road vehicle recalls (DVSA numbers starting R/) whose model names match the Alfa Romeo Brera. DVSA records some recalls under a range or chassis name we cannot match, so this list may be incomplete.
  • Vehicles affected is the number the manufacturer reported to DVSA. When one recall covers several models, DVSA often gives only the total.
  • Build dates are the periods the manufacturer gave. Some recalls have none. VINs are not shown.
  • Concerns written in capitals have been put in sentence case, and apostrophes lost in DVSA’s file have been put back. The text is otherwise DVSA’s.
