no its not that man, it drove fine and i parked it for a few weeks in the garage while i was gone and then when i drove it to work last week it started doing it on the way home, my hardbody nissan truck did the same thing a few years ago and i replaced the alternator and it stopped doing it. im looking for a shop right now to rebuild mine local
