So I took my car in for service to get the headlights fixed, (LED conversion acting up).

Note: I work at shop where I got my car in for service and my wife and I ride together and have another vehicle

While in the shop and in the bullpen, I forgot to turn off the schedule for the remote start, when I brought it in, I was showing 107MPG on the display, apparently starting and running for 15 minutes twice a day with a/c on cold, it will run all the battery down and drop mpgs to 41.5mpg in 5 days....whoops.
