Prestolite Electric offers new warranty for Leece-Neville alternators
The Prestolite Power Promise warranty covers manufacturing defects; premature component failure; and more.


Prestolite Electric announced an “Industry Best” warranty on its premium alternators — including IdlePro and IdlePro Extreme units — that will extend coverage to three- or four-year terms and unlimited mileage. The Prestolite Power Promise also includes a more robust offering of coverage concerns.
Prestolite Electric’s addition of the Prestolite Power Promise to IdlePro and IdlePro Extreme alternators helps highlight the dramatic quality differences in today’s rotating electrical category. As a global supplier of high-tech, high-quality rotating electrical products, each IdlePro and IdlePro Extreme alternator has been carefully engineered and tested to address the harshest use scenarios and extended service required to drive down vehicle downtime due to failure or service incidents. IdlePro and IdlePro Extreme alternators are assembled in Prestolite Electric’s production facility in Arcade, N.Y.
The Prestolite Power Promise warranty covers
manufacturing defects;
premature component failure;
worn/elongated mounting holes;
damage from a loose pulley or nut shaft damage;
damaged fan;
failure due to excess corrosion, rust, oil, dirt/debris, water and heat;
failure from loose terminal connections;
solder re-flow;
and many additional common warranty concerns.
The Prestolite Power Promise is available with the purchase of qualifying Leece-Neville IdlePro and IdlePro Extreme alternators.
