“Each year since the purchase of this Oldsmobile I have had to replace my alternator. I previously owned a 1989 Oldsmobile and had to do the same. The hesitating/stalling problem is what originally prompted me to get rid of my 1989 and purchase a newer version. I have owned this car for three and one half years and am just now experiencing similar problems. The problem was never identified/corrected in the 1989 car but hopefully, the dealer can correct the problem in my current car. …”
