Description of the problem	Dropped truck off for detailing. Truck was off. When employee tried to start truck battery was dead.

Electric windows closed themselves, air conditioning would not operate. Dash board lights came on. Manual brake was set and could be released, but light never went out. Truck was about 90 degrees in hawaii heat, so couldn't drive it to dodge dealer with no air and windows inoperable. Scary. Had it hauled to dealer on truck while it was running.
