There is either a draw or a battery with very high self discharge. A decent repair place will find one of the two...
Chasing down the draw can be a challenge, but determining there IS a draw isn't difficult.

The battery won't survive many of those deep discharges. They aren't designed for that.
Need to either find the issue, or install a disconnect at the battery.

Agree... Hopefully they won't keep it too long.

Thinking a battery load test belongs on the PDI list... Just not a tool I expect a lot of us have. I run up to local auto store when I need one tested... May not work well during PDI.
