I've been daily driving, road-tripping, and wheeling my 100 from 190k miles to its current 283k. Never once has it left me stranded. In that time I've replaced the alternator
I’d recommend going by a local Toyota dealer parts department and getting an OEM replacement. It’s more pricey than aftermarket but… it’ll last as long as the original Toyota alternator did.
Owned a 4th gen 4runner for over 10 years. Boring to drive and look at, but it took a lot of abuse and never gave me any problems. It only had to be towed once due to the alternator going out on me 50 miles from home.
I tossed in a Mitsubishi 200 amp P71 alternator into an '06 Town Car after the original 6G on it failed. Very good output even at low RPM
The same thing happened to me. 2012 Toyota Camry LE. The car never asked for anything other than brakes and tires. At 120000 my alternator went out on the beginning of a vacation trip.
I just did alternator on my wife’s Toyota. Paid $340 for it and did it myself in 10min. All I did was google for the parts store that had it in hand. YouTube how to remove and install.
My v6 03 avalon xls alternator replacement, parts and all was under $300
I had to do my alternator a year or so ago in my 07. Considering I got like 240k miles and ten years off the original I went ahead and replaced it with a Toyota OEM one.
Radiator let go about 12 months ago, and suspension is well overdue for new bushings. Also recently had to replace an alternator.
I’m having this same issue without the positive results. Brand new alternator battery is good. It does not drive! Turns itself off and says charging system malfunction.
