The battery is only one year old and alternator three years old. I have notice my sun roof losing it memory to return to an automatic close. I had to close it manually, pushing the electronic manual button to complete close. The reason I talk about the sun roof is because I then began having starting problems as if it lost it memory to mobilizer to start. So I did a quick reprogram sticking the key in the ignition in and out 7x then lock door, and then it starter, but was like pushing it to start. Now again after parking and shutting it off the car will not turn on.

Be sure you battery cables are tight on the posts of the battery. Then check to see if the are free of corrosion. Then go to a pro or a local parts store to have them check the state of the battery and charging system. If the battery is an Autocraft battery (advanced auto parts) then I would not be surprised if it bad. About 90% of the batteries we replace are autocraft batteries that have lost their charge within 2 years. Also if everything checks out then look in maybe having a battery draw when the car is off that may be causing the issue.
