Has anyone had to need to replace their battery yet?
I don't know if that is what caused this problem today or not but here it is for all to hopefully comment if you have experienced similar problem.

Started car after a little cranking (usually starts immediately on first crank), once started heard some weird beeping. Shut it down and restarted this time the clock on the radio was reset to 12:00, drove home. After parking at home I decided to try and restart, car started but dash lights where off, turned on headlights and they came back,....weird.

My best advice for anyone purchasing new is buy the extended warranty, they want like 2800-4000 buck for one once the factory warranty ends.
