Check the charging system voltage, the alternator might be taking a crap.

^^^^what he said. your alternator should be putting out a minimum of 13.9v DC with the vehicle running at about 2k rpm. Also, take the car to Auto Zone, NAPA, Advanced, or another store that does free battery tests and make sure that the battery isn't going out.
