Constant battery draining from unknown issue within the electrical system. I am currently on my third car battery after purchasing my car in january 2016 with 108 miles on the car. I have been using a portable battery jumper for the last month because of this on going issue. The car would not start after parking overnight and have caused a disturbance in my life before commuting to and from work, along with to covid19 vaccination appointments. Another issue is the auto start/stop function when pressing on the brake pedal at a red light where the engine is suppose to turn off and back on in order to be gas efficient. I have been forced to turn of the feature due to the car dying completely in at a red light and causing a traffic jam. It has happened multiple times and have caused additional inconvenience in my daily commute. I believe both issues are related and it is an issue with acura due to multiple individuals across the country when I have done research within acura tlx forums.
