2004 Toyota Tundra Electrical Problems

I HAVE PROBLEM WITH MY TOYOTA 2004 TUNDRA, THAT THE DEALERSHIP AND ANOTHER REPAIR GARAGE CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM. WHEN I DRIVE THE TRUCK, DOESN'T MATTER HOW LONG , EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN I STOP AND TURN IT OFF ALL THE ELECTRONICS GOES DEAD. I CAN'T START THE TRUCK BECAUSE THE BATTERY IS DEAD AND THEN SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 15 MINUTE TO OVERNIGHT, EVER THING COMES BACK ON. NO JUMPING OF THE BATTERY. HAD BATTERY CHECKED, ALTERNATOR CHECK AND OTHER THINGS WIRING AND EVERY THING IS WORKING FIND. THE DEALERSHIP AND OTHER MECHANIC FROM ANOTHER SHOP SAID THEY CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM UNLESS IT IS ACTING UP AT THE TIME THEY CHECK IT. HAD TO CALL AND GET A TOW AND BY THE TIME THE TOW TRUCK GOT THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP, IT STARTED UP. KIND OF SCARED TO DRIVE IT ANYWHERE.

ANYTIME IT RAINS WATER LEAKS IN BEHIND THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, LEAKING WATER THROUGH THE ELECTRICAL WIRING AND INTO THE FLOORBOARD OF THE TRUCK THERE ARE LOTS OF WIRES AND A BLOWER MOTOR IN THIS AREA WHERE FIRE COULD CAUSE ANY NUMBER OF UNSAFE CONDITIONS. THE CAUSE HAS BEEN NARROWED DOWN TO ONE OR BOTH OF TWO THINGS. THE FIRST IS A CRACK THAT ORIGINATES IN THE SEAM BEHIND THE DASH BOARD OF THESE VEHICLES DUE TO PRODUCTION ERROR. THE SECOND IS ROTTING GROMMET PLUGS UNDER THE WINDSHIELD WIPER COWL. THE FIRST BEING MUCH MORE SEVERE AS IT COULD ALSO CAUSE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY.
