No....bad idea. I'm pretty sure it's the alternator and if that's the case, you'll be left stranded somewhere eventually. Mine is an 00 Mystique with the 2.5 and in 46,xxx miles I've had the alternator replaced twice. The first time it was doing the same thing yours is. I was lucky enough to make it to the dealer and have them drive me to the train station in it before it cut off on the tech on the way back to the dealer.
