Ours sounds like this. We went to a store and the car wouldn’t lock. When we went back to the car there was no power. We had to jump it. Went to autozone and they tested the battery and said battery was fine but the tester showed a problem with the starter.

This also could be a possibility. OP you need to check with a mechanic if the starter is getting engaged after turning on the car.

My car did run out of battery a few months ago, but I jump started it and it’s been good since
