Description of the problem	I have a 2006 kia sedona minivan and i have had multiple issues with the alternator and battery systems. On more than one occasion my vehicle has stalled on the freeway when the alternator stopped charging the battery and power ran out. Before this happens, i see all the light indicators on the dashboard for monitored systems go on, such as the abs, tpms, hand brake, esc etc. I have had the alternator replaced once already and it has broken down a second time. I have the battery replaced atleast 3/4 times already. I am not sure if this is an electrical/wiring defect with my specific vehicle or a defect in the parts or design of the vehicle itself. Although i have luckily not had any accidents while these events occurred, i was driving on the freeway both times the alternator conked out and things could easily have ended differently.
