Warning signs include:

Battery warning light flickering while driving not just at startup

Dimming lights, especially when using AC o r brakes

Slow cranking o r repeated jump-starts

Burning rubber o r electrical smell overheating coils o r belt slip

Voltage fluctuations visible via OBD-II o r multimeter
Proactive testing every 10,000–15,000 km is strongly advised.
