I do not think that repair is suitable for this answer. There is no suitable answer to this. The battery was replaced. Car needed new battery. I needed AAA to come assist with starting the car one time previous to getting the new battery. I should of been more proactive and had the battery replaced prior to the issues I knew the car was having.
