Get your battery checked.

If the battery is fine then check the alternator.

I bet this is a grounding issue.

Old Corolla I will be guessing that it has one or more anti theft/hijack systems installed and one of them is acting up

Exactly what I was thinking, same as VAG cars, lot's of weird electrical issues are normal a grounding or earthing issue.

I bet this is a grounding issue.

A simple loose connection on the battery terminals will also give similar symptoms, dont always trust dealerships to tighten the connection, after disconnecting/reconnecting the battery.
