Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE WON'T START. BATTERY KEEPS DRAINING, I HAVE TO CHARGE THE BATTERY WITH A CHARGER EACH TIME. I BELIEVE THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE ELECTRICAL THAT CONTINUOUSLY IS DRYING THE BATTERY. HAD IT CHECKED A YEAR AGO WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THEY TOLD ME I COULD OPT TO HAVE THEM INSTALL IN A TRICKLE CHARGER TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE, OF COURSE AT MY EXPENSE. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 8,000 MILES PRESENTLY. WHEN PURCHASED NEW IT HAD 300 MILES. NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, IF THE BATTERY CONTINUES TO DRAIN I FEEL IT HAS AN ELECTRICAL DEFECT NOT JUST A BATTERY ISSUE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST WEEK OR TWO.
