Having this car for less than a year (nine months) at the time, fairly new. I drove the car out of town on a holiday vacation. I arrive to my destination checked into the hotel and the next morning the car would not start. I asked a guest at the hotel to jump start the car for me. It started. Drove the car to the next town approx. 35 miles. I need another jump start. I left the car running about 20mins, to see if it was going to charge. I drove the car about 6 blocks and it shut down again. Jump started it again. Constantly checking the car for signs of doors being left slightly opened, lights being left on. Nothing, no signs of any kind.

This is when I decided to go by a battery to see if it was the battery itself. I had the battery installed the car has been driving every since. But I brought the battery back to my home town and out of curiosity I had it checked. the clerk told me the battery was still like new. I call a local dealer and asked if anyone else had complained about a similar problem they told me "no". But for $100 they would check the car for me to see if they could locate the problem. I just find it hard to buy a brand new battery for my car and throw the battery that was already in it which was still new away.
