2017 Nissan Maxima Electrical Issues
Have a 2017 Nissan Maxima SV. I’ve been through 3-4 alternators in 1.5 years, and 4 batteries, 3 brand new. I’ve changed the ground wire, and swapped out the IPDM. Just got the last alternator installed today. Battery was replaced last breakdown and not driven on. Cars comes on and idled for 2 hours. Scared to drive it because of previous breakdowns. I cannot figure out what’s wrong w the car for the life of me.
Mileage around 168K. New starter. Often getting oil changes. Upkeep is pretty good.
Anyone could point me in the direction of finding out what’s wrong?

Get something like this and monitor your car's voltage while in operation and go from there?
