Took delivery in July of a vehicle that probably got to the dealers lot in March/April. Twice now we have got warnings of low battery voltage, probably after or driving it for or a week or two.

Bad battery, parasitic drain? Do have the dealer replace battery under warranty or jus tho buy new. Don’t want to waste time with the dealer if I won’t get a new battery or the parasitic drain taking care of.

I got the same warning yesterday for the first time. Hadn’t driven it in several days and I had the switch on for power to the overhead roof power switches. The voltage warning went away after driving for a bit today and I made sure to power that switch off when I shut her down. Hopefully that’s all it was for me. Dealer is over an hour away and really wouldn’t want to make that trip for a battery.

Doh! Nailed it, about two weeks ago I used the accessory switch to work in the car while it was off.. that’s what likely caused the issue. Dopey me.
