Car will not start!
Ugh,
Hey I need help... car won't start... seems like battery is dead (cabin lights will not go on when the door opens).
Is there anyway I can verify or/and rememdy this? (Got a trip tomorrow)
Thanks!

If you have a charger, hook it up and see if the battery accepts a charge. If it does, you may have left a door ajar. If it doesn't, then the battery is probably shot.
Now if you don't have a charger, you might want to take the battery to the dealership to have it checked. After all, if it is still covered by the warranty, you could end up with a new one. If the warranty has expired, a better replacement for a standard lead-acid is the leak and vibrationproof ACDelco AGM battery.
Good luck.
