shameka Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Looking for help to make sure I don't get ran in circles at the dealership. This morning my car battery was dead. Which is unusual. I've had the car for a little over a year . 2015 journey. I received a boost, went to work. Car started during lunch hesitantly. At end of day battery was dead. Received another boost drove 20 min home cuts car off waited 15 min and was dead. Just does one click when pushing the push start button. Does any one know what could be the problem? All the lights, radio were still bright. Please help with answers. Edited August 22, 2017 by shameka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armando G Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Sounds like a battery issue to me. Most auto parts store will test your battery for free...get it checked to reassure yourself (or convince yourself). jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfurth Posted August 24, 2017 Report Share Posted August 24, 2017 It's a 2015 with a substantial reproducible problem. This isn't rocket science - it's a warranty claim (assuming you are under 36,000 miles). Maybe there's a way to add a mileage field for all posters with less than 15 posts. That would certainly help drill home the idea that year, mileage, engine, and trim (we already know make and model) are necessary pieces of information when trying to help resolve issues. 2late4u, Armando G and OhareFred 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
