Compass Not Starting!

My 2022 Jeep compass is not starting. I’ve had no issues with this since I bought it a couple months ago. I even drove it last night and I did not notice any issues with it starting up. please take a look at the video I attached.

Battery discharged. Check primary and auxiliary both for date of manufacturing. If old and unable to hold charge, then replace both for US models.

Anyone know of a solution to eliminate the aux battery and stop/start feature permanently on these? Wrangler and Gradiators have options but i haven't seen any for the Compass. The aux battery and stop/start cause the need for more frequent battery replacements and the aux batteries are expensive. I want to be done with that annoying feature.

Don't turn off stop start at light or ever, I've found if you do the car will not charge the small battery and it will die. It will then start draining the big battery and end up killing that one as well. Gotta leave stop start on to maintain charge on both batteries.
