My brother has a 2005 Roush. He has had the battery die about 5-6 times. It has 8k miles. Rarely driven. Anyway, last night he was driving and got caught in a sudden rain storm. He said the car ran fine but all the dash and headlights just went out. Nothing worked. I find it weird that the engine would run but all other electrical items went off. Any thoughts? The ground seemed fine. No fuses blown. After a shut off and turn on, everything worked again. The battery was dead about 2 weeks ago but started with a jump. This is scary. He is going to the dealer but was just curious if anyone else has had this happen.

 

possibly charging system related....hopefully
the dealership will find the problem

 

That is a strange one. However our cars are known for batteries going when car is not used much.
