I've just spotted that on the Italian Alfa Romeo web page there's a section on recalls for all current models.
At:

For example on the 147 & 156 GTA it has:
Romeo ***** 147 GTA - front Suspension On some cars Romeo ***** 147 GTA and 156 GTA could be taken place, in the time, l?allentamento of an element of reinforce of the front suspension; such anomaly could induce noisiness and also a successive decay of the guidabilità of the car.

The post is in Italian, above text is Altavista's attempt at an English Translation.
There's no recall number quoted but I guess this is recall 4752.
Nothing posted yet on the brake recall.
