NHTSA Complaint #11286941 — 2015 SUBARU OUTBACK

THIS IS APPROXIMATELY THE 5TH TIME I HAVE HAD TO HAVE MY BATTERY JUMPED WITHIN THE LAST TWO YEARS. NO VISUAL DRAIN (NO LIGHTS LEFT ON FOR EXAMPLE) IS SUSPECTED. VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN USE ON VARIOUS TRIPS PRIOR TO CAR NOT STARTING. I HAVE KEY FOB AND COULDN'T EVEN OPEN THE BACK HATCH TO GET TOOLS OUT OF CAR. WHEN CAR WAS FAIRLY NEW, HAD PROBLEM WHERE KEY FOB COULD NOT START THE CAR (HAPPENED THREE TIMES) BUT FELT THAT WAS AN ELUSIVE KEY FOB PROBLEM. NOW I AM NOT SURE WHAT PROBLEM IS BUT I AM SUSPECTING THERE IS SOME SORT OF SHORT OR SYSTEM DRAIN ON BATTERY THAT HAS SURFACED. VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVEWAY, PARKING LOT AND IN PARKING SPACE ON STREET WHEN THESE LAPSES OCCURRED. READING ONLINE ABOUT NUMEROUS SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH DEAD BATTERY AND SUSPICIOUS ELECTRICAL DRAINAGE OF BATTERIES. MOST RECENT PROBLEM HAPPENED 11/29 AND AGAIN 12/4. CAR WAS IN GARAGE (NOT USED) BETWEEN 11/29 AND 12/4.
