The American register
The British register
- DVSA recall R/2018/012: Alfa Romeo Giulia and Stelvio (Brake and/or clutch system components may become damaged by mineral...)
- DVSA recall R/2018/124: Alfa Romeo Stelvio (Some electrical components may malfunction due to water infiltration)

The European register
The Israeli register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain vehicles, water could enter and cause corrosion to the wiring connectors in the rear liftgate wiring harness and the liftgate-opening switches. This could cause an unintended activation and opening of the rear liftgate door, potentially resulting in a loss of unrestrained cargo. Lost cargo may create a hazard for other road users, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will install additional sealing protection to the rear liftgage wiring connectors and switches to prevent water intrusion.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2018150.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on an Alfa Romeo: 39 in the register, and 704 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2018.
