Electrical System Problems of Chevrolet Prizm

My car turned off when picking up my daughter from school. When my husband and dad took the car to get checked, they were told that it was electrical. The computer blew out twice. They weren't charged which was a good thing because those are expensive. Every time you switch the a/c on or turn the headlights on the car turns off. I came on this websites hoping to see if there has been a recall on this problem because my favorite car is just sitting there collecting dust. I don't want to junk the car because it is great! I don't want to drive it neither because I have two kids and don't want nothing bad to happen. Please get a recall done. I don't want to junk this car.

The driver's power window will not raise immediately after it has been fully retracted (such as at a drive-in window, or when the "auto" feature fully retracts it before I can stop it). It will eventually raise after a few minutes of inoperation; sometimes only partially at a time. If I have intentionally had the window down for an extended period of time, there is no problem - yet. This only occurs when the window is fully retracted, and regardless of weather conditions.
