    Bought a 2014 Chevy 2 years ago, after reading the laundry list of issues, wish I did some research before buying.

      Don't stress that's what CZcams is for. I have had hondas with a list too, and it's worse because you can't go to the junkyard and get the part. If I had a dollar for every cracked gas pump housing on those mid 2000 civics. Everyone has a quirk. This car has been super reliable.

      You could've ended up with a faulty alternator. Check all your wiring make sure nothing is loose first. This job is a pain and don't want to do it again for no reason

    Did the gauge show 14V whenever the car was running before the "check charging system" light came on?

      "Alternator charging cable" if I'm not mistaken

      @jesusspencer4219 the only complaint my wife gave me was that things shut off, ac, radio , etc. So it could be messing with your injectors or computer.

    I've paid for 2 alternators and a battery in 3 years. It died on the highway yesterday and would not charge. Can you give any advice?

    • @MrMK211516
      @MrMK211516  Před rokem

      Voltmeter test when it's on if it gives you 14.3~14.5 charge then your alternator is fine. I would check to make sure all wiring is sturdy, in the case of this traverse a light tug and the cable came right off. Then I would consider a parasitic draw. I would start with all those.

    Failed to mention year, make, model, and engine size. Instant thumbs down 👎🏽
