The car would not start and I could not jump it. It was towed and they installed a new battery. 2 days later it was towed again. They were able to re-charge the battery, but not find a cause. Operated normally next 10 days when I filed this report. I think it is an intermittent short that goes in and and out as the car drives (or is towed). I love the car, but no longer feel I can count on it.
