Description of the problem	While going around 40mph "battery saver mode" came up on the display.. Few seconds later the whole dashboard icon warnings lit up: abs, traction control, brake, high beam, seat belt; you name it.! After that the speedometer display turned black following the radio display... Then they started flickering! Car was still running at around 40mph but after a while it started slowing down unresponsive! Came to a light stop then it turned green i accelerated but the rpms wouldn't go past 1500 and not shifting to second gear! After that rmps started to decrease power gas pedals became unresponsive until car completely shut down.. Lucky i was able to pull over right on time to avoid cars hitting me... Called tow truck, took it to the shop were they said it was the alternator.. Couldn't find a new one anywhere only at a dodge dealer in town for $600ish plus installment fee $100 total coming out to $700ish... Now, two-three months later as in today oct 5 2014 "battery saver mode" popped up again! Does that mean another alternator for $700?? For a new car?? Car has only 44k! Recall asap! Don't wanna put another 700 !! :(
