Electrical mess??

For the past few weeks my 2009 SS has been having an issue where either right when I start it or after driving for a minute, my theft lock, abs light, and service esc light come one then flashes low fuel and power steerng in the gauges. Gauges act funny then just flat line. This also causes the car to not want to start at times. If anyone else had similar issues, any help in diagnosing this would be much appreciated!

Sounds like a grounding issue, have you had any work done on the car recently?

I'd suggest making sure the battery is holding good charge, then make sure the post at the fuse box has good power. Then check the ground on the transmission, the big wire going to the front of it, see if it's corroded or loose or something.

Also make sure the alternator is charging properly all the time.
