I had to jump start my car 2 days ago as the battery was completely dead.I called the service manager to report this & was told not to leave the smart in the car after parking in my garage?? Something about the smart key causing the batt. to discharge.He suggests removing the key and putting it...

Anyone ever experience the battery light staying on until you actually drive. In other words Battery light stays on until car moves. Heated seats do not work until the light goes out.
