This is a good reason to follow this forum. It looks like I dodged a bullet. When I bought the 2002 Focus wagon back in 2010, the seller gave me a spare alternator - it was one of the reasons he was selling the car. He had gone through several and carried a spare. We swapped the entire SVT drive train that winter and it is still going strong. So this little tidbit of information is good to know. Thank you.
