    Interesting RockAuto filter problem

    Depends on what car you are complaining about? For my Toyota, I have started buying them from stealership via web which is not stealership anymore because they are cheaper than the part store or even WM Supertech. FWIW, I have 3 Toyota which uses the same cartridge filter.

    New-ish Maytag washing machine from 2018 is already dead

    Which model? TC or TR or both? I bought the TC a year ago and it is great. I heard the TR is somewhat weaker agitation compare to TC. TC is their old school model with rotating tub and turn dial as supposed to touch button.

    Bad Alternator?

    There is also a possibility when the alt is weak but not bad yet. If you have a shop specializing in rebuilding starter/alternator, bring it to them. They are hopefully more knowledgeable on electrical issues.

    Bad Alternator?

    Take it to another shop? What kind of shop did you take it to? There is also a possibility that the cable is bad from alt to battery. If you have a load tester, you can test it yourself. Measure the load without any electrical parts. Turn on all electrical parts you can think of like AC, Lights...
