During driving at 55 mph the ABS light illuminates. About 5-10 seconds later a large jolt is felt and a clunk is heard. All electrical systems went down, causing the lights to dim, wipers to slow, internal displays turned off. During this power loss the car could not accelerate properly. This lasts for several seconds until the fan belt is heard squealing. Then shortly after the car returns to normal, and repeats the same sequence of problems every few miles down the road.
I know a bit about older cars, but not a lot about these newer computer controlled cars. Any one know what might cause this?
