Alternator Testing in Rowlett

Parkway Car Care is Rowlett's premier auto service and repair facility, offering a full range of automotive services, including charging system diagnostics and repairs. Among our key services is alternator testing.

The alternator powers your car’s electrical system—everything from the GPS, entertainment system, lights, and ADAS systems to the starting system depends on electrical power. If the alternator fails, it stops recharging the battery, eventually leading to a drained battery. Without electrical power, your vehicle can neither start nor run.

At Parkway Car Care, we recommend regular alternator testing. When you bring your vehicle in for an oil change, just let us know if you'd like to include an alternator test. Although we offer a complimentary vehicle inspection with every service, this does not cover a full alternator test. We do check the belt that drives the alternator but do not perform complete alternator diagnostics unless requested.

If you're concerned about your vehicle’s electrical system, notice difficulty starting, experience slow power windows, have the service engine light on, see dimming lights, or encounter other electrical issues (like the radio turning off), let us know. Our nationally ASE-certified technicians will inspect and test your alternator and determine whether it needs replacement or if another issue is at fault. All repairs performed at Parkway Car Care come with a 36-month / 36,000-mile warranty.
