Consumer Description

I WASN'T DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STARTED GOING CRAZY. HEAT TURNED ON, WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURNED ON, BLINKERS GOING OFF, RADIO TURNED OFF. POWER STEERING, GAS AND BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY BECAUSE OF THIS AND LUCKY I DID NOT GET HIT BECAUSE OF THE SPOT I WAS IN. I GOT THE CAR TOWED AND SENT TO A MECHANIC. IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR THAT WENT BAD AND IT BURNED THE BATTERY SO HAD TO GET THAT REPLACES AS WELL. VERY DANGEROUS WITH NO WARNING SIGNS. I HAVE HEARD THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON IN THESE VEHICLES.
