I recently bought a brand new alternator from Manteca Ford, as the current alternator I had on my Mustang was giving out an annoying noise, and also were the only ones to one in stock (all parts store in the area had only for Manual/ I needed for an automatic). I had my trusted mechanic install the new alternator and once was done he informed me that it was still making the same annoying noise & told me to let Manteca Ford know & to look at it as it might be defective. Weeks later when I finally had a day off in the middle of the week I took it to Manteca Ford to inspect & diagnosed the issue. Even the service tech could hear the noise as well. Later that evening they call me to inform me that their diagnose was that it was not the alternator making the annoying sound but it was my power steering pump and wanted to charge me a total of $640.00 to replace & install a new power steering pump. Of course I declined, and took my car back to my mechanic & told them what Manteca Ford told me. He was shocked with what I told him and with a mechanic stethoscope we both listened to the both the power steering pump & the alternator. Alternator was clearly making the annoying noise while the power steering pump was silent. I even took it to another mechanic that I know & he even told me the same thing... NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE ALTERNATOR!! So lesson is to not trust Manteca Ford for any service. I gave 1 star due to the fact they washed & vacuumed the inside of my car.
