Buick Verano battery drains after a week, requiring jump starts on Buick Verano

Problem overview

Some Buick Verano owners report experiencing battery drain issues, requiring frequent jump-starts after just a week of inactivity. These problems may indicate underlying issues with the vehicle's electrical system or the battery itself. Owners have noted that if the battery loses its charge quickly after recharging, it may need replacement. While occasional jump-starting is acceptable, frequent occurrences can strain the battery, leading to complete failure over time. Additionally, performing a parasitic battery draw test can help identify excessive drain when the vehicle is off. Leaving aftermarket accessories connected during periods of non-use can also contribute to battery drain. Regular maintenance and checks on the charging system are recommended to prevent these issues. If battery drain persists, it is advisable for owners to consult a professional to diagnose and resolve the underlying cause.
