Review on πŸ”Œ DB Electrical AVA0001 Alternator Replacement for Chevrolet Cavalier, Pontiac Sunfire, Saturn Ion, Saturn Vue, Chevrolet Classic, Chevrolet Malibu (2002-2007) by Ralph Foster

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Disappointed with a waste of time and money

So very disappointed. This generator is broken. That does not work. Now delay another 5 days to get a replacement. A very large overlay. UPDATE got a second generator and HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. Both alternators came with a test sheet stating they had been tested to 14.5 volts and would not charge the battery adequately when installed. We have a good battery, even new. So the first time the alternator was removed and the second time it was connected again and connected to O'Reilly's and PepBoys and both only tested 12V. This one is defective. AMAZON knows nothing about spare parts. I ended up going almost 3 weeks without a working machine and ended up spending $249.88 at PepBoys at a military discount to get a generator that actually works. I don't trust Revain parts. NOW I have to wait 7-10 business days for my money back in my account to be refunded as I bought with a debit card. Of course I can one day return the full amount in the form of a Revain gift card. I do not want it. I want my money to spend in my account as I had to raise $249.88 after spending $$ at Revain and they are unable to expedite a refund for me.
