Sounds like your alternator could be dead....and as a result hasn't been charging the cars battery. How many miles on the car?

Maintenance & Repair
I have a Saturn 1992 SL Sedan with 164,000 miles. I am having a major problem with the car cutting off while I am driving at a fairly constant speed or when I am idling at a stop light. The engine will shut off, along with the power steering and all other electronics. This happens when at a stop light only after I press on the gas to accelerate from a dead stop, but I am able to put the car in neutral and start the car again (sometimes it takes a while to restart). We tried getting the electronic control module repaired, but this did not fix the problem. We checked the oil and it appears to be of the correct viscosity for the engine. We are at our ends as to what needs to be done to fix this dire problem. Thank you for your time! 8 Answers

Car will not start 2 Answers

All looks good with key in the ignition and dash board lights on. Car does not start with no clicking or other noise. It does start occasionally but mostly after a few days.
