When it rains it pours, car trouble

So last week my side detection on 2017 GMC Acadia Ltd had a service soon. Made an appointment for Tuesday. So today battery completely dead, have a jump starter and could get a little revolution but not enough to turn over long enough to start. Jumper box usually takes less than 15 seconds to charge back up. 15 minutes later still charging. Called for a tow to dealer, guy had a better jumper box I guess, mine is 600 amp. Tow guy got it to start drove it onto the flatbed, dealer calls and says you now have a check engine light, $100 diagnosis plus the $200 for side detection diagnosis. Another few grand down the tubes I fear, just complaining. If you want me to update on repairs let me know. Cheaper than a new car that can tow my boat I hope!

If the battery was dead, you could either have a worn battery or an alternator issue, or that voltage sensor thingy on the battery. Might be worth it to have them take care ofbjt if you trust them.

I had a three year old battery go bad on my Acura. Sunday morning stopped for gas before heading to South Dakota. Wife played radio. Came out and no start. Called for a jump and drove home. Got a new battery from Napa and all was fine again. Stuff hagppens.

Low voltage can cause different issues, I would replace the battery, check the charging system and cable ends and whatnot, wright down all the codes, then clear the codes and go from there, see if any and or what codes come back…

And yeah, keep us in the loop, but try to make it more readable… lol

I thought I made it as clear as I could. Yesterday no problem starting, today battery as dead as a nail. Please let me know what I need to clarify.
