Sup Team,

Anyone use this app or rely on it for anything? So I hadn't driven my 2022 for a nice drive in 2 weeks so this last weekend I washer her and took her for a lil romp but only 13 miles one way. Anyway, I noticed when I opened my door when the car was off, it wasn't cutting power to the radio. I thought it was due to an update that I ignored but not sure.

I drove the car another 13 miles back home and the same shit kept happening. I have a tracker that advises me of certain parameters and the voltage seemed low to me. 12.0 prior to drive and 12.2 after (vehicle off). The car didn't indicate any low battery but when I checked my Chevrolet app and it ran its diagnostic check, a bunch of items called for service soon. 4 to 5.
I drove her some more and all seemed back in check. Drove her again and I noticed the issue would pop up when I would turn off the car and didn't have the door open, when I typically have the door open and power would be killed immediately
Anyway, wouldn't the car let me know if the battery was low?

The last drive/ last check everything was fine and now wondering if my battery is not getting enough charge due to shorter trips. The voltage would go up to 14 when I would hammer it but then go back down.
Thoughts?

I have a tender that I could throw on but don't want to bandaid a bad battery when I could get it replaced under warranty.

Yes I plan to drive her more...
