Stuck at work with a dead battery anyone know a mobile service that actually shows up?
Quote from joldancox on April 9, 2026, 1:04 pmSo here I am sitting in the office parking lot after a 14 hour shift and my Nissan Patrol just clicked at me like it's laughing in my face. No warning signs, no slow cranking this morning, nothing. Just completely dead out of nowhere. I've been calling around to a few places but half of them aren't picking up because it's late and the ones that did gave me wait times of two plus hours which is not ideal when you just want to get home and crash on the sofa. I remember someone at work mentioning they found decent professional car battery solutions near me through some online search but I can't remember the name for the life of me. Has anyone here used a mobile battery service in the evening that actually came within an hour? I don't even care about the cost at this point honestly I just want to get home. Also random question do I need to worry about my radio code or anything getting wiped if they swap it right there or is that an old car thing? Driving a 2019 model so hopefully not but thought I'd ask before I lose all my presets. Appreciate any quick recommendations because this parking lot is getting creepy.
