Consumer Description

I WAS AT THE STORE AND TRIED TO START MY CAR. MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND CAR WOULD NOT START. THOUGHT IT WAS A DEAD BATTERY, BUT AS IT TURNED OUT IT WAS A BAD ALTERNATOR. DODGE HAS HAD ALTERNATOR RECALLS ON OTHER SIMILAR VEHICLES FROM THE SAME YEAR AND BROWSING THE INTERNET I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT BAD ALTERNATORS WITH OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE AS MINE. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ALTERNATOR. THIS HAPPENED FEB.11,2017
