Your car is 4 years old and that's the time you need to start replacing some stuff if you haven't already. Fact of life.

thats what i was thinking...

why is it the stupid cars fault?

at least it gives you a battery light so you know to check the alternator or battery, most cars dont even do that...

Hey, batteries and alternators go out on ALL cars eventually, I agree with papachristou, at least this one let's you know what to look for.

Start with the battery first, pull it out and take it to a parts store wher they can check it-free! if the battery's ok then move on to the alternator, also pull and get checked-free, see no money spent yet, maybe it's just the battery if you're lucky. let me know how it goes.
