This seems to be an ongoing issue with certain later model Suburu's. My 16 outback routinely has the battery die. I simply carry a portable jumper in the car and jump it when it does. However, I think that the battery does not have enough cranking amps to properly address starting it when you drive around town on short trips frequently and use the heater, seat heater, radio, monitor and the rest. Even the Suburu service guys, who actually are nice folks up my way, admitted I should get a different battery with more cranking amps as the issue is " a common one". I'm planning on getting a gel battery in the near future. Maybe even tomorrow. It wouldn't start today after being driven just two days ago. Weather is cold here though.
