Flashing battery on dash

After some research, this off and on battery warning light means I have an alternator problem. I have a 2008 Ford motorhome with 30,000 miles. Do Ford engines usually have alternator problems at that mileage?
Thanks

    The battery meter on the dash is USELESS.


    I have to agree. They are not calibrated at all.

    If you know your house battery is fully charged, disconnect it from the vehicle charging system
