HI, Our 2003 jeep laredo wont start on its own. It will only start if we jump start it. Do you know what can be wrong with it. We already bought it a new battery 2 months ago. Thanks

It has a 2 month old battery. And it doesnt want to start on its own if its cold. The only way to start it is to give it a jump start. If we give it a jump start and get off at the store and turn it off. I will turn back on. But if we leave it for several hours it wont. Unless we jump start it again. Please help. Thanks

Check the battery connections and load test the battery. Test the voltage at the battery and check the charging sys. Is operating properly. Check to see if its not charging enough. Ty for using 2carpros
