so after getting a "alternator malfunction" early yesterday morning I read all day about it. Learned that many people were driving the next day and the car all of the sudden died. Well it happened to me this morning during a snowy ride to work on the highway. I pulled over safely as I was near the off ramp. Hoping it is just the alternator........ :thumbsdown:

Great way to start off the work week!!!!!!

On a positive note..... the guy that helped me push my car closer to the side of the road said.... "DAMN those lights are sick" referring to my angel eyes as they were blinking... hahaha!!!

I thought I read a post earlier that you recently had a new alternator put in?
