Hello proud CTR owners,
I learned this from my local dealer today, and this completely blows me away. Is it fact or just some BS?
> I bus to work, and thus, sometimes the car sits on the driveway for 6 straight days.
> In the past, the car would struggle to start (after sitting for 6 days), but still managed to make it. This past Sunday, it finally gave up, and I had to jump it.
> The local dealer told me today that, the newer Honda's have the "technology" that drains the battery even when sitting on the driveway. The computer is still running. Blah blah...
> My other older Honda's would start after sitting for 2-3 weeks. My CTR is 2018 with 12,000 miles. I live in Seattle and right now it's in the 60's (batteries tend to struggle in cold weather).
If this is true, then that means all of us are screwed after parking at the airport for 1 week.
Guys, is this fact or BS?
Thanks,
Michael
