Electrical problem
2005 Hyundai Tuscon 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 66k miles

I have a 2005 Hyundai Tucson GL-4WD. A few weeks ago, I was attempting to leave a pizza joint, and as I was starting up my car, it just died, and this went on for maybe 30 seconds. I tried cranking it maybe it 3-4 times. So when it did start up, my clock and radio needed to be reset, and it’s been acting strange since then (kind of stalling especially when I make a left or right)…I was told by a neighbor mechanic that it’s possibly my mapping sensor (A.K.A. - brain). What does this sound like to you?
