2006 Cadillac CTS 2.6 L - Base Model
All factory parts w/exception of Sears Battery purchased new July 2011, Alternator purchased new (Autozone) and professionally installed July 2012.

Battery Saver Active comes on - usually when going very slowly or at a stop. Car will function just fine for days, then while going 30/40 or at a stop light, Battery Saver Active will come on, then the volts go from 13/14 down to 10. AC Shuts off.

Turning the AC back on does NOT affect the voltage.

Yesterday while driving approximately 45 MPH, car went from 13 V to 9 V in a matter of less than aminute. Dash turned dark, now car is completely dead.

Tell us when the problem occurs:
At random times/days, not every day, usually drives just fine. Battery Saver Active comes on and volts change when going at a low speed or idiling.

Charged the Battery - Didn't Help
Had Battery Tested - No problems
Had Alternator Tested - No problems

I will, however today is Sunday - and all the dealerships I know of are closed. I am out of town visiting my father after his surgery and need to get back home to Dallas.

#5.
Not an AC Issue

#6.
I will answer any questions I have answers to, unfortunately I just joined at about 12 AM when my car just died.

I haven't posed anywhere but here

#8
I do not own or am looking to purchase an Allante
