Sometimes these dealers just seek to give you a more cost-efficient (read - cheaper) solution as a stopgap while hoping the real more expensive problem does not happen during the warranty period.In my case, mine came out "Charging Fault". They told me it was wiring problem, but my regular mech told me was alternator issue. I told them this and made them promise that if was really alternator issue, they would replace it even if after warranty over. True enough, alternator conked. Lucky dealer kept to word and replaced it for me.But to give credit where credit is due, that salesman was good even in after-service. My alternator actually conked with whole family inside while coming back from a holiday some distance from home. Lucky salesman came and took my whole family back to my house while arranging for tow truck to take my car to workshop.</blockquote>
