2004 Xlr, Need Help

2004, XLR 81000 miles. Had car 2 months when it died in line for a car wash. When I finally got it started there were multiple DIC warnings including service stabitrac, service radar ride control, and max speed 80 mph. I took it straight to the dealership. They replaced battery, fuse box, cleaned corrosion off harness leads. That fixed the problem for about 2 weeks. The warning indicators went off again. Dealership says they don't know what's wrong. Anyone know what I should do?
