Unidentifiable problem. Something is drawing power from my alternator causing a drop in the energy feed to the alternator. This makes the low battery light come on during long trips.

2 Alternator/generator/regulator problem

Failure Date: 10/14/2003

I have a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero. The car has been a continuous problem since I drove it off the lot. The suspension has failed, the fuel injector and alternator have been replaced, the electrical system malfunctions all the time, and problems continue to develop on an almost monthly basis. I contacted Oldsmobile and they could care less, referring me to the "dealer" who has been repairing this vehicle repeatedly. I see why Oldsmobile is going out of business. They're products are inferior, and border on dangerous. I'm just hoping this car does not malfunction seriously while I'm on the highway. The incident date below is the approximate most recent repair date. The dates of various incidents are too numerous to list.

3 Alternator/generator/regulator problem

Failure Date: 09/09/2003

I filed a complaint before odi number is 754110, and I wanted to add the latest to this complaint but couldn't seem to find it. However this vehicle is still having major problems now the passenger window fell like the drivers side did, the tires had had to be replaced again, after I took it in the a dealship for a recall notice, they repair whatever needed to be repair now the blinkers make a fast clicking sound and the light inside blinks really really fast while using signal. Yesterday the car wouldn't stay started , the engine hestiated to start or didn't start at all. Damn I'm so tired of this so I just stopped paying on this vehicle they can come get it as far as I'm concerned. I work hard to end up having someone sell me a lemon. This is terrible. Do you have any ideas on what I can do?.
