Description of the problem	Driving in rush hour traffic on a busy city street had an alternator issue on date listed above in my 2011 dodge challenger with only 34,500 miles. The abs, trac control, battery saver, seat belt and other dashboard lights came on and off then the car shut down and would not restart. Battery is less than one week old. As i am out of warranty, and aware of a recall on alternators in certain 2011 chrysler vehicles i called chrysler and they took an incident report and conceded to me that although the alternator is the same manufacturer, voltage, model and part number they would not honor the open recall because my engine is the v8 5. 7 liter and not the v6 model. I am worried the dealer will also fail to honor the recall and not repair my vehicle. This is despite the fact that i had taken my car to the dealer several months prior and asked them to check on a loud whining noise coming from the engine compartment. I believe that noise was the failing alternator. They told me the noise was a result of my removing the plastic engine cover the car came with- what nonsense. The p60 recall needs to be expanded to all 2011 dodge challengers using this alternator not just the v6 models.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
