Yes, I put a meter on it before the dealer showed up and it was 12.5 but it wasn’t engaging the starter so there witnessing of a voltage drop. Why in the hell would I diagnose their vehicle anymore than I had to, not my pig and not my farm.Dead batteries are very much a thing with units that have sat for extended periods. Who knows how long it sat before being railed over to your dealership to sit some more.
By any chance did you at least hook up a multi-meter to the battery to see what charge it had, or the draw when trying to crank?
Anyone with a garage to test-fit their vehicle should have a multi-meter (basic toolkit stuff here) to diagnose some of the basics.

Probably.Can you even bump start new vehicles with all the electronics anymore?
Push starting a manual has nothing to do with a jump box.love how everyone is saying "you could have push started it if it was a manual" when the original post even says a jump box wouldn't start it

Series ... or parallel?(I went through 3 NOCO units in 6 months which were just keeping a few 12v run in series topped off).
Dammit.... took my reply.Did you wax it?
