Went to best buy and when I came out my car had made a friend. But the pic didnt turn put well, I parked way out and there was another 6th SS next to it. As I was getting in I heard a voice say "I like your car", turned around and it was the other SS's owner.

Don't take it to Wallmart, liquor stores, inner city parking lots, etc.

Nice American flag decals on your windows, where did you get those? Do you have any closer pictures of them?

Waved bye-bye as it was being carted off to the dealer.

Readers Digest version....

After the 6th documented occurrence of the car being brick dead after sitting for 3 days without a battery tender, this time in 50+ degree weather, the dealer agreed that they just need to man up and replace my AGM battery.

Last time, I had Roadside Assist jumpstart it and drove it into the dealer. They removed the battery, drained it and recharged and swore that this time would be magic. So I told them the next time it didn’t start, it would be delivered to them on a flatbed and they would need to change the battery.

The SIXTH (?!) time ... damn. Have they done a key-off drain test on the car to look for shorts?

I can't watch.

Hope they get it right.

Such a pretty car. I love my FIFTY. Sorry this is happening to you. Hope they find out why.

They did that last time. In fairness to the dealer, the 1st 4 times I handled it myself and just told them about it. That’s part of why I called the last post the “Readers Digest” version. Today is only the 2nd time it has been to the dealer for this. But I did tell them last time that if they didn’t replace the battery, it would be back.

I know why. Just need the dealer to get on the same page with me and replace the AGM battery.

Based on someone else's great suggestion, I now have a place to put my phone while in CarPlay.

I found mine dead twice in two weeks last February and I daily drive mine. The second time it couldn’t be jump started so it was also sent to the dealer on a flatbed.

I didn’t know about bad batteries and the havoc they cause so I was at the mercy of their diagnosis. They said nothing was wrong and it started with a jump. It’s been fine since so I wonder if they actually replaced it.
