Description of the problem	2013 durango awd crew- was driving the vehicle around 40 mph. Avoidance maneuver required heavy breaking (could feel abs working). Upon moving the vehicle again from a standstill, noted a strong odor. Thought it might just be the brakes. Drove less than a mile and parked vehicle for about 90 minutes. Started vehicle again and within 5 minutes (never getting the vehicle above 40mph) noted the strong odor again. Soon after the battery icon appeared on the console. Drove another mile and stopped the vehicle to investigate. Other than the odor, nothing else was found. Could not locate specific location of odor. Decided to take vehicle to dealership about 6 miles away. Vehicle started w/o the battery icon but within a mile it reappeared. Odor present the whole time but no smoke. Sunday--dealership was closed. On monday, dealership called to say our alternator was fried and we needed a new one.
