The alternator is defective. The alternator provides a ground that turns on that light. The only other possibility is the wire between the light and the alternator is touching ground at times. 99.8% of the time it is a bad alternator.

Autozone alternators are known to be bad out of the box. The good news it they warranty them for life.

^ This. I replaced a starter last week for someone and they purchased it from Autozone: Bad out the box. Exchanged w/o any hassles. You have to expect that with AutoZone.
