2017 Jeep won’t start.. sometimes
My Jeep wouldn’t start or make any sound so I got a boost and it started. Went for a ride. Turned the vehicle off and it wouldn’t start again.. few hours go by and then it started without being boosted. Can’t figure out what the problem is..

Obviously check for loose connections at the battery terminals. I did not know about newer years, but the batteries in our 2012-2013 models really sucked. Some people had to replace after only a few months. Mine lasted about 2 years.

+1. I do recall someone on here having to replace a battery just a couple weeks after purchase, and also agree with the 2yr typical life. Double check connections, if still doing it, have the battery tested and back to dealer for warranty if need be....or just buy a good battery.

My battery lasted about 2 months on my '17 not even 2000 miles if I remember right. OP I had the same symptoms as you
