You have a water problem. It could be getting into your car computer or your electric components so you’re gonna have to really look and at the car and see where all your water downspouts are at and clean them out so that when it rains that water can de drained correctly. Or change the negative alternator cable that cable is problem damage with green residue and it’s not giving your car the power it needs.
