| Description of the problem | Found my battery dead and my rear trunk door open. I had closed it and parked my car in my garage the evening of the 4th. I went to my garage today and discovered this. This is the second time this has occurred. After searching the web, i know that there is a problem with the electrical system that will cause the battery to go dead if the rear latch doesn't properly latch or the door is left open for a specified amount of time. This is very frustrating. Last time, i had to cancel a dr's appointment when i discovered it. Today, i was just going to my garage for another purpose so didn't need to drive anywhere. |
