If you think that's bad, mine used to completely restart the entire car. EVERYTHING shut off (electrically) then booted back up.
I searched and yup, bad ground as well. Happy fixing!

Check to see if your headlights dim too when something electric is turned on (brake lights, headlights, blinkers etc).
