| Description of the problem | My 2019 outback (bought in sept 2019) has been experiencing dead battery issues. I have had to jump start it twice in the last few months. I am only driving primarily one time per week due to covid, but i don't feel that i should have these issues with a new car/batttery. Reading that others experience the same issues as i do. I just drove on wednesday and purposefully drove an extra time (total drive time was probably 25 minutes, stopping once) and on saturday the battery was dead again. I don't want to keep experiencing this. Was going to change my battery but i don't know that it will solve the problem from what i am reading. I want to report it so that it can be investigated and potentially fixed. |
