 Description of the problemWhile driving my 2011 dodge durango about 45 mph, my battery lite came on, within a matter of approx 2 minutes, all of the dash lights came on and were blinking and alarming, my windshield wipers came on, my ac turned off, my fasten seaght belt lights came on and alarmed and then suddenly the car lost power and power steering went out and i quickly tried to hanover the car to the side of the road onto incoming traffic. At the same time the brakes went out then the entire dash/panel went out as well as my headlights. This was 6 am and it was dark outside. I got over the intersection and was able to turn the vehicle and was able to drive down the road and get off the busy street. I then had to wait till the car stopped on its own as the brakes did not work. Also no headlights. I tried to turn on emergency flashers and the would not go on. I put the car in park and got out as i could smell burning of what i thought was electrical wires. I had to have it towed to the dealer. I could not even lock the car as the key fob did not work. It is at the dealer now and i am waiting for a diagnosis. The incident was very disturbing and unsafe as i had no control over the car. Luckily due to the time of day, there was little oncoming traffic and i had not entered the freeway yet.
