Even after 9 years of owning this car, I'm still susceptible to kids leaving the back seat 'dome' lights on and killing my battery. Twice I've gotten jumps from strangers (easy in NYC -trade for spot) on coldest days of the year. Granted the second jump was my fault for not charging long enough.
New 850 people watch out for this, it's basically a design flaw. Veterans, what are your tricks? I had been in the habit of bending down to check for lights out -just missed it.
