Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. 98A is the number Alfa Romeo assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 23V623000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR Part 573

Is 98A the same recall as 23V623000?

Yes. 98A is Alfa Romeo’s own number for it; 23V623000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does 98A cover?

2023–2024 Alfa Romeo and Dodge, 4,129 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the 98A repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
