I bought my car brand new in 2012 from chryaler dodge and jeep in springfield pa. i babe around 96,000 miles on my car and this will now be the third alternator that has been put in my vehicle. from what i know, the alternator should last up between 80,000 to 100,000 miles. i believe there has to have been a defect with my specific car. along with some of the other recall items i am now reading about with my model, having kids, i am increasingly concerned about my health and saftey driving this vehicle. i want to know what can be done about this on your end

The heater on the passenger side of the car is not heating up and blows very cold air making it hard to defrost the window to see when driving
I was driving on the expressway and my car died without any warning. i brought it to the dealership and they said i had oil in the injectors. they cleaned it up and sent me on my way for $715. not even a month later i'm still having the same issues and now sometimes it's not starting. so another repair shop changed the battery and starter, after the work they run some tests and say that i have a bad tipm to bring it back to the dealership. i bring it back to them and they want around $1800 now for this repair. i called chrysler and spoke with them about this and they refused to help in any way with this situation even though we are loyal dodge family customers(on our 5th vehicle). the reviews online show many people having this issue and it is a very dangerous and scary experience having your car die in the middle of the expressway with no power steering. i definitely think there should be a recall for this part to save the lives of others on the roadways. thanks in advance
Engine light came on, had battery replaced since the battery was about 6 years old. car has only 29582 miles on it. seemed to fix then while driving 3 miles later battery light came on again. decided to take to dealer the mext morning. then while driving to dealership the car began to rapidly lose functionality while warning lights were appearing on the dashboardone by one until it car lost power while driving. the time from no warning lights to complete loss of electrical functionality was approximately 2 minutes. the shut down included an abrupt loss of power steering and braking capabilities while driving on a busy street during day. i was able to quickly compensate for the loss of power steering and braking and stop the vehicle while drifting into a gas station parking lot. attempts to restart the vehicle involved no clicking or the engine attempting to turn over. had car towed to dealership. i can only assume ot may be the alternator since battery is brand new now. i am wondering if this is part of campaign #17v-435 but my car is a chrysler 200 3.6 engine ...
