how old is your battery? has it been discharged and then recharged that you know of? once the battery is flat and then brought back to life, it might not be up to par... bring up the voltage monitor in the cluster and watch your alternator when you drive and see if any spikes or dips correlate to the incidents... better yet, if you can read the shadow memory of the car's modules, you might be able to see registered power spikes/dips...

i suspect the battery and/or alternator...
