My GF has a 2001 Mitsubishi Galante. When she started the car this morning, all was well. (She claims there was no sluggish engine turnover, display dimming, etc.) 10 minutes later the battery would not start the car although the display was illuminated and audible signals seemed OK. A shunt test showed little life. Generator was OK. No short was found. The battery was replaced and all has been fine. My question: What would cause a battery to go bad so fast? I have never seen this. Many thanks! Frank
