MY CAR WAS STALLING OR SLIPPING AS I DROVE, AND I GOT TO A GROCERY CAR AND PARKED IT, I CUT IT OFF AND WHEN I CAME BACK AND TRIED TO RESTART IT. IT WAS DEAD. I CALLED AAA, AND HE SAID MY ALTERNATOR WAS BAD AND IT WAS CAUSING MY BATTERY TO GO DEAD. I GOT IT HOME AND HAVEN'T DROVE IT SINCE. THE DODGE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE PRICE OF THE ALTERNATOR SO I STARTED DRIVING MY OTHER CAR. I THEN CHECKED TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE WAS HAVING THE ISSUE. I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE A RECALL, WHEN I CALLED MY DEALER THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT AND I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL IT CAME OUT IF IT WAS REALLY A RECALL. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT AS WELL, WHILE IT WAS UNDER INVESTIGATION. I HAVEN'T DROVE MY CAR IN A MONTH, WAITING ON NOV. 28TH, BUT TODAY I FOUND THIS WEBSITE AND DECIDED TO ADD MY EXPERIENCE. SO GLAD I WASN'T DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED. *TR
