The battery would discharge over the last several years. Did not drive the vehicle regularly. After having a shop check it out, I did a drain test myself and found that the RADIO was causing the problem. However, to temporarily fix the problem without cutting wires to the radio, I had to pull the fuse. Unrealistically, that fuse also runs your speedometer, fuel gauge and a couple of other important functions. Absolutely incredible that they would design a vehicle that way. I had seen radio as a problem issue, but never guessed it would disable the car.
