“I had a parasitic draw on my battery that became progressively worse to the point that a jump no longer worked to start the vehicle. I bought a brand new battery and it was completely dead within 24 hours even though I had only driven the vehicle about 5 miles and had the vehicle off for over 23 of these hours. I replaced the battery again and left the vehicle running while loading for a trip and 30 minutes later the battery started to release smoke from overheating. Wires and plastics around the battery were starting to melt so I completely disconnected the battery. …”
