Guy’s:  My alternator quit working yesterday after 7 months and 130 hours in service.  I called Van’s and asked if there was a warranty on this unit.  The answer was 60 days from purchase.  It sat in the box nearly that long before installation.  I had it diagnosed by a alternator rebuild shop and they said the rotor had failed and was not worth rebuilding, a “throwaway unit”.  It is a light duty Suzuki Sprint 60A ND alternator, model 5022, also used extensively in other Japanese autos.  The newer test machines are computer controlled and need model parameters input before the unit can be tested.  I was able to buy an identical replacement and exchange the pulley for $145 with a year’s warranty.  I am somewhat disappointed that Van’s will not guarantee the unit as most reputable auto parts stores currently do.  Dan
