I bought a 2020 F pace last year and it has been a joy to drive. I keep my headlights and wipers on auto so they come on/off when needed. Been working great. This am I come out and in my garage, the tail & head lights are on and the car is dead. no lights in the interior at all. Luckily I do not lock it when it is in the garage .
Is this a normal behavior for an F Pace when the battery dies? The headlights don't even go off when I turned the switch from auto to OFF. Right now I have it on a trickle charger because I can't open the hatch to get at the battery.
I am unsure of how old the battery really is, so hopefully it is that simple. Have other here seen this happen? And does it usually mean the battery has reached EOL?
Thanks!

 

If it’s an original battery I’m sure it’s on its way out. You should have it tested. Need a good tester that can do AGM’s. They are born with almost a thousand CCA. When they get down to around 550 CCA’s the gremlins come out to play.

 

I will have it checked Monday. Sticker on battery(It says Land Rover battery on the side) says 7/22..so its just over 2 years old.

 

oh yeah - I got impatient and was able to jump start it off my 2010 Toyota Venza... Ha!
