Well i have had it with my car. I have blown 5 alternators. 3 in the last month. 5 in the last 2 months. The place keeps putting them on for free but i have had it. They say they do not know what is poping them. I had the stock battery in my 99 cobra and it was spose to be dead. I got a new one duralast gold or somethign like that. Somethign that advanced auto sells top of the line for them. I get this battery about 3 weeks later i am putting in to a friends house the lights get real bright the guages go crazy the abs light comes on and i lift the hood there is battery acid all over my engine. I clean it all off with baking soda and scrub it real good i take the battery back i get a optima battery. I take it to the place that put the alternators on they say that my alternator is bad again and they will put another one on for free and ordered a new one. They tell me it is the COMPUTER Can this happen? What should i do? Should i take it to ford? Run the codes or what? thanks in advance.
