Renault Scenic II 1.4 i 16V (98 Hp) Minivan 180,000 km

Problem: Alternator Failure

Started the last 30 km of night driving on battery when the alternator failed. 8 km from arrival, lost power steering, headlights, and electric parking brake. Pulled over to the side of the road. Called roadside assistance, taxi, then slept. But for this mileage and age, can we really blame it?
