If the alternator stops charging on many cars many dash warning lights can come on (e/brake, check engine, park brake and traction control light) but once the car is charging and the engine is running no dash warning lights should be on. Any time we replace an alternator we check the diode pattern and charging amperage and voltage of the installed alternator (some rebuilt alternators are junk!). The codes stored need to be investigated ask for the codes to be written down like P0420, or P1138 they are more specific trouble codes with specific trouble shooting charts available.
