take this with a grain of salt as i dont have a ton of experience, but my first thoughts are the battery and alternator

you either have a bad battery or youre losing power somehwere if you have aftermarket subs or anything install a relay

#

or its the alternator

#

yea check for power loss from aftermarket stuff and if that doesnt solve anything it might be an alternator issue

#

i've seen weirder things than an alternator failure at that low mileage

We had a Dodge Charger in the shop for the longest time for the same problem.

Check the fuse box when the car isn’t running, if you can you should test which fuses are drawing power.
