[QUOTE="macuser27, post: 1424051, member: 21874"] Hahaha! With the bad luck lately that I've had with this car I wouldn't be surprised if it did. Anyway, Update. I took the battery out, cleaned the terminals with battery cleaner and a wire brush. Took the battery clamps off the wires and cleaned that. And also cleaned the wires. Put it all back together and the battery light came back on and off, and on intermittently again. Went to O'Reilly's and the friendly and helpful counter person went out to the car with me and used their hand-held tester and tested the battery with the car off and then with the car running and their device came back with starter-ok, Alternator-ok but battery bad. Will head to Ford parts counter on Monday and get them to swap it out under warranty and go from there. [/QUOTE]
