I also have an Issue with the battery draining on my 2010MKT ECHO BOOST. I replaced the Motorcraft battery with a new Motorcraft battery after the other went dead. The battery is less than six months and was quite dead after setting for five days. There must be a drain somewhere. If anyone has suggestion please sing out!

It’s called a parasitic drain. Any creditable shop can diagnose.
