Sixteen new part numbers have been added to the Bosch rotating machines product line, including six SKUs for remanufactured starters and 10 SKUs for remanufactured alternators. The new SKUs extend coverage to more than 5.6 million domestic, Asian and European vehicles in operation in the U.S. and Canada. These vehicles include the 2015-’17 Chrysler 200 2.4L L4; 2014-’17 Mazda 3 2.5L L4; 2012-’16 F-250 Super Duty 6.7L V8 Diesel; 2013 Hyundai Elantra Coupe 1.8L L4 and 2012-’16 Cadillac SRX 3.6L V6.
