Well yesterday my car didnt start for about 3 horus....i was coming home from work picked my girlfreind up from school went to eat. Then took her home i was parked outside her house for about 5 minutes. When i went to my car it would crank but wouldnt catch.....so im thinking it might be a fuel problem.....but i know the lines didnt freeze cause i got half a tank and it wasnt that cold that day.....well right before getting it towed home i decied to try one last time. I gave it some gas and the damn thing started right up. well i went to autozone today and got both the battery and alternator tested just to maker sure nothing was wrong with them they both came up fine. and on my way home from autozone i got cut off and had to hit my brakes kinda hard and my trac. light and abs light blinked....but the weired thing was my radio shut off and the car felt like it was going to shut off...any ideas on what that means.....?

My car was doing the same thing last month and it was the battery terminals for me. Have you cleaned them recently or checked them to see if they're loose?
