I came out Monday morning to go to work and the car would not start or turn over just like before. All lights on dashboard light up, with everything flashing. Each time I tried to start the car it "clicks" but won't turn over and there's less and less power. I stopped before it totally died like before. I was prepared this time and used a jump box I purchased on Amazon and it started right away. I drove my usual commute of 100 miles to DC. I noticed some electrical abnormalities like my radio switching stations without me touching it and just other odd things.

I went out to my car today to get something out of the car. The doors opened but it was hot so I was going to let down the windows. Same problem... won't start, clicks but won't turn over. All lights flashing but you could tell power going down. Hazard lights would also flash on the dash. First time it went completely dead and I couldn't get into the trunk for emergency supplies.
I noticed the day before on Thursday during my commute to work some electrical abnormalities such as my radio switching to AM station on it's own. Happened several times I drove the car from the parking deck to my work place deck. In the past sometimes I would get a low power notice on my phone from the USB ports so not sure if it's related. Might be something draining my battery? It recharges and runs but now this is the 2nd time in one week.
I am going to check the battery and also see if there is a short somewhere and notify my dealer where I bought the car used. Could also be issue with electrical programming. It has been muggy and rained both times this week but not heavy rain. Is water getting into wiring?
