Description of the problem	While driving my 2012 3. 6l dodge grand caravan with a 160 amp alternator the battery light came on, within 5 miles the transmission control system stopped working. Further all of the system lights on the dash came on and the radio and hvac system stopped functioning. The cause of these system conditions was the denso tn421000-0770 alternator failing. I believe that this is the same alternator that is used on vehicles that are included in nhtsa recall no. : 14v-634. Chrysler claims that the alternator fails only on cars that are equipped with ehps. I believe that my alternator failed in a similar fashion to this recall. The dodge and chrysler minivans that are equipped with a 3. 6l engine and the denso 160 amp alternator should be recalled. In the end my car stalled in the middle of the road which could have resulted in a terrible accident had i been on the highway.
