Description of the problem | The car battery dies very quickly. We bought the vehicle last year, and it only took less than an year before the car started dying for no reason. We replaced the battery, but the car would still drain the battery overnight. We took to our mechanic and he cannot find what is drawing the energy. Now, if we leave the doors open for more than 10 minutes the car will die. It is completely unreliable at this point, and i have had to purchase a travel "jumper" kit in order to not get stranded. |
