Description of the problem	Radio was replaced. Intermittent failure of electrical system while driving started after replacement. The only pattern to events is they start with application of the brakes. All of the gauges gyrate post to post, the radio shuts off and restarts and the dash lights and headlights flicker. The car eventually dies and will not restart until several minutes have past. After restarting , the dash lights continue to flicker for a period of time. I have taken the van to the radio installer, two independent mechanics and a dodge dealer. No one can duplicate or fix the problem. The last time this happened my wife was on the freeway when an incident started. It created a dangerous situation as she tried to exit the freeway in rush hour traffic. She was able to exit, but the van died on the offramp and blocked traffic. After several attempts the van started and she was able to complete exiting the freeway.
