Car looses power immediately after turning off and can't turn on or unlock

Hi

I had a weird problem last evening, it happened twice.
I was able to drive the car to my destination which is an hr away and turned off the engine. Immediately after stopping the engine, the car lost power, I couldn't even unlock the doors from inside the car(usually the doors unlocked by itself). I can't even turn the engine back on. But if I give it like 10-15 mins, it got the power back and I am able to turn on the engine. While driving after I turn on, I felt something weird with acceleration. Like it's jumping the gear or not getting enough power to move.
the battery is less than a yr or 2 old. I am not sure if it's the starter or ignition problem. This is 2013 infiniti g37x all wheel drive.
I haven't done any maintenance on starter , ignition or spark plugs after buying from dealer. It has around 75k miles on it.
