Description of the problem	The vehicle is regularly requiring a jump start due to a low battery voltage. While operating my car whenever i come to a stop the auto start/stop feature activates and my engine is shut off. As i release my foot from the brake and the engine restarts all power to my vehicle is completely lost temporarily, including the power to my steering wheel which instantly locks up. It's been very scary and concerning to say the very least. I've also lost power to other systems on my car like the climate control system being unresponsive entirely, not being able to adjust it at all. The climate control section underneath the radio controls were completely blacked out and non-functioning. There was no buttons illuminated nor were the ambient lighting around it illuminated. I tried restarting my vehicle and that didn't work. The climate control eventually was functioning again shortly after. While driving down the road with my foot on the accelerator, i regularly get an alert from the information screen in between the gauges stating something along the lines of "service stabilitrak". Every time the message appears i feel that my engine or transmission loses a bit of it's sense of functionality. My car jerks regularly. I was told it may be the auxiliary battery which i've replaced and i'm still experiencing these issues.
