Thanks for the suggestions FJ. We tried, but ultimately needed a tow. My attempts to jump it failed, so I don't think it was a battery issue.

But there is a second problem now.

We left it in park with the e brake on since it was on a slight incline. The tow truck driver picked in up from the front end (FWD) and drove about 3 miles with the car left that way. A loud squeaking noise accompanied the trip, which topped out at speeds around 40mph or so.

Could this have caused any damage?

Thank you for reading.
