Description of the problem	I was driving my 2012 dodge charger sxt (blacktop edition) approximately 45 mph on a highway when suddenly the car's electronic system starting going haywire. The abs light when on, then the red brake light, then the engine light and so forth. The electronics started flickering on and off. I headed for the nearest exit and just i was exiting the car's steering ability locked up and coaxed it to the middle meridian of the road when it then suddenly lost power, narrowly avoiding an accident in a busy ny intersection. The vehicle would not turn on and i called aaa. They tried to give the car a boost but it only powered the electric system and it would not start. Once they took off the cables it had no power. The car had to be towed and is awaiting repairs. The car has never had any previous issues and i have maintained all regularly scheduled maintenance work with the dealer where i purchased the vehicle.
