2018 Mazda 6 is going fine.\n\nProbably due for a battery soon as preventative maintenance.
Pros: going fine
Cons: battery due soon
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
When you say, \u201ctwo new batteries\u201d are you speaking of the big ones? There is a small one that operate your convenience/comfort items. It looks like a small garage door battery.
I’ve had it 3.5 years and it just started doing the “Stop Vehicle Leave Engine Running” thing about a month ago.
Cons: battery warning started
Exactly the same issue I am currently facing with a month old GLC300. No resolution yet
Cons: same issue, no resolution
I had the same problem. My car was brand new too but was sitting for a bit before it was sold to me. I brought it in to get charged a few times but the message was still coming up and I was definitely driving it enough. Eventually they just changed the battery under warranty.
Cons: problem persisted, battery replaced under warranty
Vehicle:
Mercedes
The batteries Mercedes uses seem to be really poor quality. I have a daily class and it seems they are changing the battery every 1.5 years so far on average…
Cons: poor quality, frequent replacement needed
I've dealt with this issue on both of my newer AMG vehicles. My older ones never had this problem. From my understanding, this is caused by the new mbux system being a bit of a power hog. I eventually had to invest in a trickle charger, and I have to charge both of my AMGs 3-4 times per year. It gets worse as your battery gets toward the end of its lifespan.
Cons: power hog, frequent charging needed, issue worsens
So far have not had any issues except for dud OEM battery, kriginal and warranty...
Cons: dud OEM battery
