Possible battery issue???
I went to start the car and it was dead, motor wouldn't turn over, but it tried to crank. Interior lights still working. So I got a jump start and everything seemed fine. I went to a friends house and when I was going to leave the car wouldnt start again. Got another jump start to get home and now the car is once again dead sitting in my garage.
Does this sound like the battery is gone or does it seem like something more serious? Also, my car is still under warranty, but will the battery be replaced free of charge or is it not included?

rule of thumb : replace at 4 years
it might be warranted for 6 years but having a car DOA sucks *****. our cars run hot. hot eats batteries. I got an energizer to replace my stock one. Before it died (after 5 years of service).
jumping your car can easily screw up electronics
sparks are bad mmkay

Brought the car into the dealer.....
It was a only a dead battery, they replaced it under warranty and I'm back on the road.
Also had the sunroof **** replaced while I was in....it kept twitching, it was so annoying!
