Engine stalls when coming to a stop. In addition, the battery volt gauge drops below 13. This doesn't happen every time I come to a red light, but it happens frequently enough. Also, after filling the vehicle with gas, the engine stalls almost immediately after it is started. (only when in drive).

Battery volt guage drops below 8 volts, dash and headlights dim, windows roll up and down very slowly. After 30 seconds power returns. This takes place when no external devices are activated. Dealer said all camero's have this problem. Been in shop 2-3 times - they verify but can not repair. Dealer said is not a safety or drivability issue. I am not so sure..

With the electrical system of this car the headlights will dim a considerable amount, the battery gauge drops from normal into the red (left side), the windows will run slow, the heat/air will also run slow. The vehicle was brought back to the dealer four (4) times, once to have the alternator replaced, the other three (3) times for testing. The problem still occurs, and they can not find a problem. This was also reported and documented to chevrolet, but according to chevrolet, the problem is normal.
