Alternator/generator/regulator problems of the 2007 Jeep Commander

The Commander has an electrical defect that prevents the car from starting. We have traced it back to the alternator wire. It's the design of the wiring that's causing a defect. When I research it this is a problem that most Commander owner's deal with. There's no way to fix the problem. Jeep fiat Chrysler have never addressed this problem. We've replaced the battery and alternator twice now in the last 2 years.

The battery light came on close to my home I continue to drive and when I open the hood the alternator was smoking and smelled like it was burning it was so hard it almost caught on fire there was no flame but there was lots of smoke.
