My car is 100% dead. It’s either a bad battery, which it shouldn’t be since it was replaced in November, or the alternator is bad. I am hoping for a bad battery since that would be warranty. Pain in the butt since I have PT I have to get to & it’s going to be the weekend when nobody works. Fun.

Sorry this has happened.

Your battery may be dead just because it hasn’t been used much and the car still draws current for stuff like the clock and computer. You might be able to charge the battery and get it working. Mike

Like Mike said.
I’d start by trying to get someone to jump start it.
