Description of the problem	Deat battery i've had this car for six weeks and have had triple a out three times to jump me. Once it starts the battery recharges its-self. They also tested the alternator too and its testing fine. This car has less than 15,000 miles and i am the 3rd owner. Last week took it to the dealership and they told me it checks out fine. The car sits more than 3 days will not start. Yes, three days!!!! There is something that runs in the back ground of this car that is zapping the battery. I can tell you after shutting the car off and removing the key and hours later you can go to your car and turn on the radio without using a key. I feel this issue is connected to the system display screen with the onstar, radio ect that continues to run in the back ground. However, i'm not certain. I'm beyond frustrated.
