My sister's 1991 Honda Civic DC is on its way to get another alternator. This makes 4 (or 5) in the last 10 years. Yes, an alternator every 18 months seems extreme to me, too. The battery was tested and is 6 months and under warranty. Car has 350K+ miles. We're having a qualified mechanic check it and replace alternator, but they never seem to look deeper.
Questions:
Is it common in this age and high miles?
Is there something deeper that would make alternators go bad so frequently?
Thanks!
