Is the alternator covered under a Dodge warranty?
I’ve only had my Dodge for about two years. I was driving today when I noticed that it was idling very roughly. I took my car to Autozone to get tested, and they told me that the alternator was bad. Since my car is so new, I would think that my warranty would cover it, but I’m not sure. Does the Dodge warranty cover alternators?
