Put in a brand new alternator. I took it to work and it cut off.Took it home had another new alternator put in and changed the battery to a brand new. Went to work. Got off work at night, 2 blocks from the job the lights started dimming in the car, and in mid acceleration it cut off. I had to put on my hazards and I jumped out of the car to see if someone could see my lights. The police pulled up in back of me, Thank God for those men they helped me by pushing my car off of the highway onto a side street. They also took me home. I love those hard working men. All police officers are not the same!!!!!!!
