99 malibu,96000 miles
when i first start it up everything is fine,,as soon as i put on the brakes to shift to drive or reverse the abs light and sometimes the brake light comes on,,and here is another thing,the headlights and dashboard lights go really dim at a standstill and the airbag light comes on once in awhile,,some times it starts with no problems and other times it cranks really slow and sometimes it acts as though it has a dead battery but it always seems to start eventually,,going to end up taking it in but wanted to hear some common problems it might be,any kind of advice would be helpful

Check output of the alternator. Seems like it may be running a bit weak.
