Description of the problem	My car is a 2017 subaru outback. Since i've had it x 3 years,, the battery has drained abnormally three times and i've had to replace the battery 3 times. I'm not leaving it on and definitely not leaving any lights on accidentally. I only have 23,000 miles on it. Battery manufacturer states my battery should be good for at least 5 years, especially at the amount i'm driving per year. So each incident occurs when i try to start my car and it doesn't turn on. The car is stationary and not involved in any accidents. It was parked each time this incident occurred but this situation must be something wrong with the electrical components in the car. It makes the car unreliable. I'm usually stuck in a parking garage at work or home and last time was on the street and had to get a tow to the mechanic.
