two days ago, my car started with no problem. yesterday, it would not. Even the lights wouldn't come on. I tried to jump the battery, but nothing. I took the battery back where I got it, they tested it, and said it was fine. I take the battery home, put it back in the car, and it starts up as if there was never an issue. WTF?????

    Probably have a bad power or ground connection near the battery. By taking it out you bumped it and it made connection again. I would have it checked out before it strands you somewhere. Call me if you want to make an appointmnet.
