I had an issue recently on my qv where the infotainment screen didn't turn on. I've also been having issues with the 12v not always turning on my plugged in device, and with my clock settings resetting itself to 24h instead of 12h, so I finally took my car in to have it serviced and also have the software updated since other members have reported versions higher than mine (in fact I've seen people having 4 other versions, all higher than mine)
I bought my car from Alfa of Larchmont and the sales department was great and my advisor was even more so, but there service is lacking. At the suggestion of @MDriver I went to Alfa Miller of CT instead, and the service is night and day different, so thank your for the recommendation!
Back to the qv, they said that I had the latest software version for my particular model/version/features (maybe those qv owners with the driver assistance package [something I don't have and didn't want] have a different software version, if you want to confirm). They also said that my battery had low voltage and threw a fault code at the computer. This must have been caused by the year my car sat on the lot waiting for me to come rescue her. They think the battery was the cause of the display and 12v issue, but think the clock format is a bug still to be fixed. My battery is now fully charged but my software is still the same, albiet with ACP.
Now onto the cars and revelation.
They had in their shop:
A Chiron and a Veyron (both of which don't come with an infotainment screen, to my amazement considering they cost 1mil plus) (they both also had their entire body panels off so they could be worked on)
2 huayras
4 570s
2 720s
A P1
A Spyker
A bunch of astons including 2 zagatos
A bunch of Maseratis
A bunch of Bentleys
(They said there was about 40mil worth of cars there)
But the best car I saw there was a Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio
All joking aside there was one qv in comp red that looked beautiful.
And finally the revelation, despite Alfa's reliability reputation, there was only 1 Alfa there, besides mine. Hopefully that speaks more to the reliability and less to the fact that no one is buying them (vs. a half million plus hypercar).
