Car battery drained. Have had to call AAA twice. Have now purchased another battery and it failed to auto start when I attempted to cross the intersection.
The contact owns a 2019 Subaru Forester. The contact stated that the battery had drained while parked overnight on several occasion. The contact had experienced the failure approximately seven times. The battery would be jumpstarted and the vehicle would operate as needed. The low battery warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who was unable to identify the cause of the failure. The vehicle had not been diagnosed. The dealer replaced the battery on one occasion however, the failure persisted. The contact became aware online that there was an electrical issue with the vehicle that prevented certain electrical functions from going into sleep mode once the vehicle was turned off, causing the battery to become drained. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 600.
