This vehicle has only 39,800 miles on it. This is the second time that the battery and the alternator have been replaced. I understand that batteries only have an average lifespan of 3 years here in Florida, but what about the alternator? I bought this car new. I do not believe that it is normal for a car with less than 40,000 miles on it to go through this many alternators. It is now on it's third alternator.
