Default Problems with the truck any help???

Well here it goes, well after i got my truck back from the dealership getting the tranny fixed, i put the tune back in the truck, well the truck started right up did not have to do a security relearn. Then a few days later it was acting up, the lights would just cut out while driving and the radio would go out, my abs and parking break light would come one and flash then go off.

Well tonight I started it up and it fired up but you know how the truck is at a high rev at first, well it went to 1000 and dropped to like 700 and stayed ther would not drop then, let it idle for like 10 min then got in it put it in gear then it dropped to like 400. went about 30 feet, the lights flashed and then it stalled...

Also just put a new battery in about 3 weeks ago, all the wires are tight.

Any ideas??? Greatly appreciated.

Well the obvious solution is take it back to the dealership since they last messed with it!
