Wait on that one. Monday pick up SUV with new battery and sunroof module which was the trouble this time (they thought). Drive to work and back and lunch Tuesday. Drive to work Wednesday get in SUV to drive home and high battery drain contol message. This is more than drive time. They know all that information and they told me how long my last 100 trips were. If you are ober 5 miles a day it should not be an issue. I do not use Bluetoothin the SAV which is thought to be another issue and always and always lock the car which put it to sleep in theory.

I am on my second dealer in town as the first really was poor. There are only two. They have a high rating but it seems like no suppoprt on issues like this.

I do have a trickle charger and have had for some. That is how I get it up enough to get it to the dealer sometimes. However plugging a car in evry other day or evnery day masks the issue and does not help at all when you want to drive away from home overnight and worry if you will get back.
