A bad alternator can indirectly contribute to unintended acceleration by causing electrical issues within the vehicle's systems, such as the throttle control or sensors. If the alternator fails and causes a drop in voltage, it may lead to erratic behavior in electronic components, potentially affecting acceleration. However, unintended acceleration is more commonly associated with issues in the throttle system or transmission rather than directly from a failing alternator. Regular vehicle maintenance is essential to prevent such issues.
