2022 Alfa Romeo Stelvio

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2022 Stelvio.

Transmission Automatic 8-spd

The 2022 Alfa Romeo Stelvio pairs an 8-speed automatic transmission with an engine requiring 5.5 quarts of 0W-30 API SN oil to deliver EPA fuel economy of 22 city, 29 highway, and 25 combined mpg. Logging just four total owner complaints, this model year ties 2021 for the lowest figure in the 2018–2022 span and represents a dramatic improvement over the 118 complaints of the 2018 launch year. Still, with two active recalls and air bags and seat belts constituting the top complaint area, the 2022 Stelvio demonstrates that while overall reliability has stabilized, specific safety restraint systems remain the primary focus for researcher scrutiny.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the spark plugs every 30,000 mi; coolant at 150,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 150,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2022 Alfa Romeo Stelvio sits at the tail end of a clear downward trend in reported issues across this generation. Complaints dropped from 118 in 2018 to just 4 in 2022, recalls fell from 11 to 2, and TSBs decreased from 142 to 55—all without any investigations in any year. The 2022 model’s four complaints are minor (air bags/seat belts, unknown/other, and electrical/visibility), and it recorded zero crash or fire complaints. This arc suggests that Alfa Romeo steadily resolved early-generation problems, making the 2022 the most refined and least problematic year in the federal record. For a used buyer, the 2022 Stelvio is a strong pick: it offers the lowest complaint and recall counts of the generation, indicating a mature, well-sorted vehicle.
