If and when it does replace it with a denso and enjoy another 200k+ miles of no problems.
Look into a Denso remanufactured alternator. They are the Honda OE brand and are designed to work with Honda's dual-mode charging system. You can find them for under $300 at places like Rockauto or NAPA. I recently replaced mine on a '13 Honda CRV with no issues.
I recently purchased parts from NAPA. Got a Denso reman alternator, water pump, and belt tensioner.
Buy off rockauto and go with denso brand
Alternator is easy. OEM or Denso for sure. It’s a super easy job.
Fords can be really picky about which alternator you use! Even if it’s a remanufactured Motorcraft, it’s worth it. Had a friend with an 11 Edge 3.5 that we put a aftermarket alternator in and it complained errors etc… for months till we finally swapped it out and it worked fine with the Ford part!
I feel like I got a steal for my alternator replaced in my Avalon. Battery light came on and I went and bought a reman Denso at NAPA for $340 after the refund for the core. It was done in 45 minutes
I just did mine last week with Denso remanufactured , snapped the bolt and had to replaced the pulley tensioner too ????
No, don't get the denso remanufactured, because I got mine and it failed right out of the box.
The Denso branded remanufactured alternator arrived from Rock Auto with a broken plastic socket. I arranged a return and replacement, but the second unit also arrived with the exact same damage. I believe the issue is with Denso's factory packaging, as the alternator is placed socket-down without cushioning. I returned the second replacement for a refund.
