It might be the amplifier. Its mounted under the center console cup holders. It can get pop and water spilled on it, which we all know is not a good thing for electronics. If it is sticky or showed signs of water stains it will need to be replaced.

Does it have an aftermarket remote start, alarm, DVD player or stereo?

Well then something in your wiring is very messed up. Best thing I can tell you is climb under the dash and look for something obvious not right. Cut or chewed wires or someone else's hack wiring job.
