Default Random Power Loss in 6th Gen

Haven't posted on HT for quite a while since school has started. --

Every once in a while I'll be driving and I'll notice a power loss when applying the brakes because as soon as I apply the brake, the music will cut out for a second. If the stereo is on, the subs will be cutting in & out..If I am at a dead stop and turn on the blinker, I'll notice a very small power loss.

This only happens once in a while. If I turn the car completely off & restart it, the issue goes away for a while. But every once in a while, the problem returns. WHAT COULD IT BE?!

My battery was just replaced about a month ago.

Sounds like either poor alternator output or simply alternator overload. I would have it tested to see.
