Consumer Description

I WENT INTO MY CAR, WHICH IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE, AND TURNED THE KEY. THE CAR DIDN'T TURN OVER OR MAKE ANY TYPE OF SOUND INDICATING THE CAR WAS STARTING. I DID HAVE RADIO AND LIGHTS. I CALLED A FRIEND TO ASK IF IT COULD BE THE BATTERY, MY CAR IS JUST 10 MONTHS OLD AND ONLY HAS ABOUT 5,000 MILES ON IT, BY THE TIME I FINISHED THE CALL I TRIED TO START THE CAR AGAIN AND IT TURNED OVER. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN THE FOLLOWING WED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THE "TESTED EVERYTHING" AND CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT WAS BATTERY RELATED. THAT BECAUSE OF THE EXTREME COLD AND NOT USING THE CAR VERY MUCH IT WAS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN. BUT IF IT IS THE BATTERY, WHY WOULD THE CAR START UP A MINUTE OR TWO AFTER IT DID NOT? I HAVE NEVER FELT SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AND NOW THIS PROBLEM IS ONLY MAKING IT WORSE. *TR
