I have a 2014 RLX and did not have this problem. I was on vacation last year for about 4 weeks and was traveling and left the car in my garage. When I came back and approached the car led's on the handles worked fine and so did the car itself by starting in the first crank.

4 weeks straight. It around 25k miles on that at that time. No Issues to me..

There must be a significant draw depending on where you live and if you keep car in garage mostly or outside and if you lock car in garage or just l have it unlocked in garage ( as I do here in SD). My 2014 RLX advance is is on its 2nd replacement and I just turned 38K miles. Got last replacement at my Costco ( Interstate Battery with 36 warranty replacement) for $86 all in. Easy DIY replacement BTW and you I didn't have to use ancillary battery to maintain car setting. Good Luck with the replacement. Demosan
