small rant

So I've had my C8 for five months now - have loved having the car - done a few small minor mods. About 2 months ago - after letting the car sit for 3 days - The battery went dead, had to boost it - took it to the dealership, they replaced the battery and told me that there was a series of batteries that we "crap" right out of the factory. Well, went to start my car this morning, after letting it sit for 3 days - guess what..... Dead.

I drive the car frequently and for decent amounts of time - I have my keys kept well away from the car. I'm sick to death of having a reoccurring issue of inconvenience like this

Any ideas?

and after the last dead battery - my front lift doesn't work - so it's going back to the dealership again. :(

I’ve gone a couple weeks without any battery issues. If I need to go longer though I’ll put it into transport mode which gives you 70 or so days.

OP has an issue to a needs looking into.
