Wondering if most or all alternator issues are with the 160 amp alternator. I have the towing package and heavier duty alternator in my '11 Crew (I think 220 amp output) and have not had an issue with mine (56,000 miles). Anyone with the tow package alternator experienced issues with their's failing? Just curious.

You say it as if getting any of the recall work done is even an option. My dealer just about laughed when I asked about getting recall service done. The parts they need for this must be about as readily available as unicorn poop. They told me I'm on a wait list for the brake recall components. Yeah right. Expecting the call any day.
