Another dead battery victim

Add me to the dead battery mystery group. I jumped it and drove 2.5 hours to the dealer. They could find NOTHING wrong. They ran all of the appropriate tests. Nothing had been left on, no switch positions had been changed from our normal setup.

Do you use bluetooth paired with your phone? By any chance do you remember if you were on the phone when you parked the car?

Nope, my wife does not have a BT phone, only knows how to use the radio, and leaves the lights in AUTO. A mystery so far.

You should call roadside and sometimes they just swapped out the battery. There is a known problem for our batterys being dead. After about a year later, one day my car battery was just dead after sitting in the garage for a day. I had to get it jumped, and my SA just replaced me a new battery.
