Focus

  • Automatic transmission
  • 24,000 miles

Pepboys measured the output at 10.5v (supposed to be at least 13v). My battery has dies twice this year. Apparently, FORD does NOT cover alternators as part of the Engine warranty (even though the Alternator is in the engine compartment). At such low mileage, one would not expect it to start failing so soon. Never buying a Ford again.
