Go to a dealer. You should be within warranty if it is the alternator. Are you sure the new battery hasn’t failed? How long has the new battery been in before having issues again

I'd be more suspicious of the battery. Lots of people have had to replace their original OEM batteries. You can have your complete charging system checked for free at most auto parts stores.
