Thanks Bernd. FOD seems to be the leading theory. I hope that was it,
because if I have to chase electrical gremlins, my head may explode.

Looks like something internally broke loose and went through the

Not a Dak, but still a Mopar:

Any idea what would cause an alternator to fail like this?

It was nearly new so I invoked the warranty and got another new unit.
I'm hoping it was a manufacturing defect rather than something on the
vehicle side.
