2009 Subaru Forester on its 3rd battery

Yes, you may have a “phantom drain” pulling a small amount of current from the battery even when the ignition is off. I just had that problem on my van. If you or your husband have a voltmeter and know how to use it, you can easily test your system for a current drain at the battery. Or a local mechanic can do it for you.

The dealer should have tested your system for the current drain, but apparently they didn’t.
