take you car to auto zone or advance and see if they will test your alternator and load test your battery. Start with that . I think there was a recall on igniton switch for these cars around that era so that could be part of the reasoning from other mechanic. I beleive they were prone to possible fire in ignition switch. Check for a recall ,it should be free if it has not been done yet
