Three Alternators and One Transmission- less than 50k Miles 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Kate on  Tue Dec 26 12:36 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I have just had the second alternator put in, in less than six months. I am concerned I am going down a path of no return! This problems is like the Pontiac Grand Am I had 14 years ago. I swore then never to own a GM again, and I haven't.

This is a 1995 850 GLT that I purchased with only 36k miles. The transmission went out at 38k miles. Although this is under "extended warranty" I am getting frustrated with the problems. I really like this car....but

the Dealer is telling me, "sometimes this stuff happens/" Any advice/comments on key components I can follow up on to see what else is wrong? I had a Volvo specialist (and not the dealer)look before I bought.

Thanks for any insight
