This problem is intermittent. On warm days, when driving with airconditioning.Turned on, the car stalls and then quickly starts up again. No notice from computer problem light. Note other owners of this car have had similar problems even after dealer check.........One dealer informed me that it is the baffle around the fuel take that cuts the ignition out and I should keep fuel completely filled to top or at least half full. Yesterday when the problem happened again, it was warm in los angels, had 11 gallons in tank and still had problem. No recall was ever initiated by us government or gm. My car is a 1990 cad with only 80,000 miles and maintained regularly. *Tr

Electrical complaints
While driving 45 mph cable to battery repeatly loosened, causing loss of power.*Ak
Barrington motor works had made more excuses than fix problems, other problems exist, but too many to list. The barrington mw has never once found a problem till the car leaves us stranded, even after we complained about that problem. Until I find a decent gm dealer, this is the last gm for us, we are sick and tired of cadillac dealers, and we have been to many.
ALTERNATOR FAILURE. *AK
