Probably the same "engineer" that FORD used on their Escape. The last time I changed the alternator on ours, I had to remove the wheel, strut, hub and axle shaft to even see it let alone get it out. The alternator was attached to the car with a bracket that first had to be unbolted, then the bracket had to be removed form the alternator in place, THEN the alternator could be maneuvered out through a tiny access hole at arms length (once you figured out the right orientation). It literally took six hours work to replace a freaking alternator.
