I just bought this car from a relative and I guess I should have checked online at all the problems this car has before buying it. However, I have an issue with this car. I can jump start the car and it will run all day and I can turn it off and then come back later and turn it back on and I don't have any problems. It'll run all day long. However, when I get home and turn off the car and let it set for about
3 hours, then I come back and turn it on and the battery is completely drained. What could the issue be? I checked inside the car to see if any lights were staying on. Nothing appears to be on while I have this car parked. I have to jump start the car every time I go to use it. Could a new battery fix the situation? What could be causing the battery to go down so fast? The battery is several years old from what I can tell.- posted
