Description of the problem	The battery on my 2017 subaru outback keeps draining and going dead. This is the fourth battery gone dead in four years. Last one only lasted little over three months. We replaced with brand new factory battery at end of may. Today in september 7th. Battery completely dead as i try to start the vehicle. Last time i took the vehicle to a subaru dealer. They said everything electrical was ok on the car. Technician said the back dome light was on. This time i checked the dome light and it was on off position. I believe there is some kind of elctrical issue with this vehicle that is causing the batteries to die.
