98 sable electrical

My 98 Sable will cut out.. when starting after a few hours parked all the dash details have changed, the radio, clock etc and it is hard to start.
What can be the cause of this? My hubby is in hospital and I don't want to get stranded. Should I get a diagnostic done first?

You need to get it to a good repair shop and or dealer and have them check it out and fix it.
It is possiable depending on the problem it may quit or faail to start alltogether on you.
Good luck MT

Took it to Canadian Tire... had a diagnostic done.... was the BATTERY
seems ok now!

Thanks for posting back and letting us know what the fix was and how it went.
Good luck MT
