It's nice to meet you, Nicole.
What I would do is take the car up to a parts store and have the battery and charging system tested. It's possible something was left on or there is some kind of a drain on the electrical system, but the parts stores will check the battery and alternator free for you to be sure before you just go buy something.
If you have any follow-up questions, please feel free to ask, it's part of the service. If not, thank you for taking the time to contact us today. I am hopeful you found my information helpful and had a good experience.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.
Thank you.
Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
