Updated: Battery died happened on my 2 months old car

[Ven]

So frustrated, just 2 months old , it died after park on my driveway one day! Have to jump start.

What should I do next? Should I go to dealer check it? Or the warranty can cover replacing battery?

Updated:
I went to dealership yesterday, they upgraded software and replaced battery. But this morning, I received message on Fordpass app: the remote feature was disabled to save battery. Fortunately, I am still lucky to start the car this time. will see later....

call your dealer for a check up

Yep, go to the dealer. They'll check the battery and hopefully more. Let us know what happens.

yes it's under warranty. I had a Fiat 500 Abarth battery die at about 33 months, got it replaced for free under warranty.

Ours died 4 weeks ago today. It also was only 2 months old. Dealer sent roadside service to get it started. The battery only had 5.6 volts. As soon as he turned the jump start on, the truck came alive. The dealer approved a rental vehicle for us. They still are not sure what is wrong. They finally replaced the battery, and tcm module, but still have a small parasitic draw. If you can, have your dealer provide a loaner/rental vehicle and leave the truck with them until they figure it out. Also, call Ford customer care and open a case with them. (800) 334-4375

Good morning. Go ahead and send us a private message with your VIN and the name and location of your Ford dealer, and I’ll look into this battery concern.

Two weeks after the dealer replaced the battery, "remote feature disabled" message happened twice again. But luckily, I can still start the car, So I put jump starter with the car, just see what will happen..... Kind of anxious....
