But in October 2019, the car started having <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freeautomechanic.com\/battery.html\">battery<\/a> trouble and I had to keep calling roadside assistance. Honda dealer said it was because I don\u2019t drive the car enough to charge the battery. Last year after I got the new battery, I didn\u2019t have any more problems until October. So this tells me the battery is the problem. It seems they only last about a year. I need a dependable car. Am I being unreasonable?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><!-- In-Article --><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block; text-align: center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5950293074584657\" data-ad-slot=\"3814845838\"><\/ins> <script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>If you are in the habit of leaving the car sit for long periods of time you should consider purchasing a battery maintainer. This will keep the battery fully charged and cause the battery to have a longer life. I personally use the &#8220;Battery Tender&#8221; brand with great success. It comes with plug and play connections. You can just plug it in the wall, plug it into the connector attached to the battery and leave it for as long as you like without worrying about the battery going dead.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=freea08-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B010NRKERI&amp;asins=B010NRKERI&amp;linkId=39801e635e0a1a13f53fca48be179460&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Why is my battery draining?<\/h3>\n<p>When the vehicle sets for long periods it is normal for the battery to be weakened.
