What is wrong with my car?

I was just driving home and my car all of a sudden stalled out. I was driving and the steering got firm all of a sudden and the battery light came on. I popped in the clutch and restarted the car and drove and figured maybe it was just a coincidence. But then about a minute later it did the same thing again. I started it up again and drove about 2 1/10's of a mile and was home. Very wierd though because I have a full tank of gas so that is not the problem. Do you think I could have some problem with the fuel pump?

Anyone else ever have this problem?

Seems like your alternator went out, and your battery went out too. Same thing happened to me when my old Lude's alternator decided to stop charging.

That's what I was thinking but I started my car several times in the garage last night and it was fine and not a problem all day today. I don't know what happened.
