Wow dude, I’ve never really seen you on here before, but yeah you shouldn’t be having problems starting your car at like -3, Id be going to get your battery voltage checked, maybe you just need a new one. ---

yeah i took it before to ericksen but they didnt come up with anything. It didnt start this morning or the day before, i had this problem last year also. To replicate the problem, id have to leave it there overnight which is such an inconvenience but i guess its the only route. Is that still covered by warranty? ---

Battaries usually never are covered just like brakes, and clutches. ---

It would be if your altenator is not charging the battery correctly or if you have some faulty wiring there somewhere. If you just have a POS battery then no. ---
