Im having the same problems...only worse

On the highway my car died. The car was acting like there was a huge power drain. Lights slowly dimmed. THe engine started to struggle (even though I was at WOT).

I pulled over- waited 15min- started up the car (which was kinda sluggish).

If I kept the car @ 100KM/HR no problems...if I went faster...the light would start to dim and then the car would die.

Is this an alternator problem?
