Pre-Elon if you weren’t a frat guy you didn’t have to see this kind of edgy alt-normie content ever. It just didn’t get served to you. We used to call it “local twitter”

@HasJobAndBennys thank you!! i will try all that, it would be nice to not have to deal with it anymore lol

Well, not to sound too pessimistic, but a new battery is a low cost service, so they might not've seen it as worth their time. To give them the benefit of the doubt though, it's also possible they tested its voltage, and it was on the lower end of acceptable tolerances, so still a "pass."
Another real possibility is a bad or failing alternator, which will degrade every battery you install over time, faster than it would normally lose capacity.
My shade tree mechanic recommendation would be a new battery, unless you want to buy a cheap multimeter so you can check the voltage between the terminals. Should be in the high 12volt range if the car's been off overnight. A free thing you can do is check the battery terminals now and see if they're loose, corroded, anything like that. Usually these things are a frustratingly simple fix, so it's not where we initially think to look.

@HasJobAndBennys also id agree with the shops part but when ive taken it to several, and also had oil changes in between where they do a check up, would they have noticed a need for a new battery?

@HasJobAndBennys like may 2023, i wanna say the starting issues began summer 2024. and has happened anytime its hot out since

@HasJobAndBennys check engine light, ETC light also sometimes comes on with them, sometimes not, and they always go away when i turn it off and back on if it starts successfully
English

@xxxrayspex Does it stay on and is it the only light to come on?
English

@HasJobAndBennys nope! drives fine other than the issue with starting, also i forgot to mention that sometimes when it fails to start the service power steering warning comes on if that means anything idk
English

@xxxrayspex Do you ever have any issues while idling? Like the RPMs dropping low and the engine stalling?

@HasJobAndBennys ive taken it to a few, theyve all said my battery, alternator, starter, whatever you'd usually check in that scenario are fine. one couldnt even replicate the issue. the shop my new job uses for company vehicles will be my next stop probably if i take it again
English

@xxxrayspex Did they check the battery voltage, and do you have a voltmeter? It may be weaker with it being warm outside which would allow for auxiliary things to run, but not always enough to turn the engine over. What has your shop done when you’ve taken it to get looked at?
English

@HasJobAndBennys like constant turning, then the engine will fail to start but the electrical will be on. if i give it another try or two it eventually starts. key also gets stuck in ignition like the ignition locks up. only acts up in the summer its perfectly fine with mild/cold weather 🤷🏻♀️
English

@xxxrayspex Does it make any noise at all the first 2 cranks? If so, how would you describe the noise?
