i recently jumped my neighbors car with my villager--i dont know if this is related but after several days the brake and battery light appeared on the dash-the airbag light is flashing, and whenever i accelerate i lose the volume on the radio.any ideas?

Check fuses
and check charging system
as it sounds as battery getting low on charge
suspect bad alternator if fuses OK
with engine running check battery volts should be above 13.5 V
