Just last week, my wife and I were going back to my El Camino, parked at the far end of the parking lot as usual. There was a chick with the hood of her car up, and she was wiggling the battery cables.
She said it has been acting up for awhile. I wiggled on the positive cable and it was loose, as was the ground. The battery looked really old. I offered to jump her car. So I got the Elky over there and it fired up right away. It was a Autoxzone battery and I suggest she drive right to Autozone right up the road, and have them test the battery, and replace the cable ends. They need to be TIGHT to charge and start the car. She said she was really busy and will do that someday soon. We left and I suspect she was stranded at the next place she went.
She will find time when she is stranded. As a buddy of mine often says: Not my farm, not my pig.
