Default Generator light came on and car stalled

Hola,

So was just moving from one parking space to another in the city. I pretty much turned the car on and began to drive, took a corner about 20 feet away and the car sputtered and then stalled with the generator light on. I was able to get it started again but the RPMs dropped from 2 to 1 and it stalled. Tried a couple more times with the same result then revved the engine and it started, light went out. I was able to drive another 50 feet with no problem, parked (parallel) and then proceeded to start the car a couple more times with no problem. I also moved around the spot a few times going from drive to reverse. Everything seems to be OK now but am a little skeptical.

A few things:
- Just had a coil recall done on the car
- The temperature control was on econ.

Thats about all the details I can think of, am planning to call the dealership tomorrow AM, but wanted to see if you awesome folks have any advice.

Thanks!
