My son's car has had the alternator and battery replaced and it ran fine for bout a day before dying a slow death again. We had alternator tested and replaced again. It ran fine for another day before dying again. Mechanic took it to Kia dealership and had it diagnosed. They said battery cables bad and alternator bad so both were replaced. (Thank goodness for lifetime guarantee). Car keeps dying a slow death. Lights dim and eventually go out. Car dies and pushing begins. Can jump it off and runs for a short distance before doing the same thing. Had belts and pulleys fixed couple of months ago and wondering if a problem stemming from that? (Maybe dumb female question??) Help!!??
