Is the alternator covered under warranty?

Well I was told by autozone employee that my alternator is dying and it isn't my battery so Is the altnernator covered under warranty? I hope it is because when I had my transmission replaced it was covered under warranty by acura dealership.

check it on ur warrenty manual, or in the acura website

it will stated which will be covered or not

even with extended warrenty some parts are not covered after 3 yrs, like the suspension.

Do you have a sub system in the car? If so I would take it out, because they can site that as the reason it failed.
