Anyone else experience problems with the aux battery? At the beginning of Covid I didn’t drive my Jeep for 5 days and it died. The electrical system went crazy and it had to be towed to the dealership. They replaced the aux battery then. In Montana the windchill has been -35* so I’ve been starting my vehicle or driving it somewhere daily. Today while out running errands the check engine and aux battery light comes on at a red light. Call the dealership while I’m stopped and they tell me it’s ok the aux battery does that when it’s cold. I ask if I’m good to finish errands. They tell me yes. Pull up to a coffee kiosk to get coffee, put it in park, (engine still running) finish my transaction, put it in drive, and I hear a clunk and the Jeep won’t budge and the aux battery and sway bar disconnect light is flashing. Put it back in park, then drive, and it does the same thing. Wont budge, and the D on the gear shift is flashing. Tried jumping the battery twice. Long story short I ended up having to have it towed to the dealership but it’s Friday and they are booked tomorrow so can’t look at it till Monday. Anyone else have weird issues with the aux battery crapping out so easily and causing other issues?
