Default Odd electrical problems.

Hey guys, thank you for checking out my post. I have a 09 LS 460. I've been driving it as my daily for about 6 months now and it's been an amazing car up until this odd issue.
Today the cars navigation and the whole infotainment system randomly restarts while driving the car. Nothing mechanically is wrong with the car, no bumps, knocks, or odd noises. It's just the whole cars computer system restarts and displays a message saying "Limited Eletrical Equipmemt Available." And the steering wheel light with the exclamation point comes on for no longer than 5-8 seconds then shuts off.
It seems to happen randomly... unprovoked even... any thoughts or feed back would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

Sounds like a battery or battery-connection problem.

My guess is it needs a new battery...
