Unhappy 2014 Dodge Avenger...HELP!!!!!

I have a 2014 Avenger and it is having major trouble. We replaced the Alternator, battery, serpentine belt, and power steering pump. The battery light keeps coming on and the car keeps dying. Took it to Autozone and it codes P0562. Don't know what else it could be. Anyone have any suggestions?????

How long did you let that noisy alternator go before you did something about it?

seems like the battery terminals may not be tight enough...

Oh dangit. I forgot to mention check the ground post on the strut tower. They work a little loose after they're new. I've seen many of them come in for this. You can wiggle it back and forth while the car is running and you'll hear or see fuzzy sparks around the nut.
