Mine did that years ago and after a trip to the dealer(they couldn't figure
it out), I finally tracked it down.  The bolt was loose that holds the
positive battery cable down on the starter.  The one with the plastic cap
over it.  The cable was jumping around sending erractic power to everything
causing what you described below.

It started with the ABS light coming on.  Then the EATC started going
crazy--going off and on, the display freaking out.  Then the radio started
cutting out.  There MAY have been some drivability issues too, it was hard
to tell.  Then when I pulled into the work lot, the Check Engine light
finally came on.  This was all in the space of about 10 minutes.  Does this
maybe sound like the CCRM?  The last time I had a dead battery it didn't act
like this.
