| Description of the problem | After just under 2 years of ownership, i started noticing that the battery was a bit weak when starting. Since it was out of warranty due to mileage, i took it to a private mechanic for it's 60k mile check up. He found the battery was weak and replaced it. Since then, i an still having the low battery issue. If i do not start the vehicle in 2. 5 days, the battery is too week to perform. |
