    I bought a 2006 Elantra approximately a year ago with about 50,000
    clicks on it. The car performs great until recently. On 3 different
    occaisons at about a week apart I go to drive the car but it is
    completely dead. The keyless entry will not work...the clock is out
    and the door open ringing sound is gone . When I put the key in the
    ignition absolutely nothing! Not even a clicking sound. It is a total
    loss of power. On all 3 occaisons I had my car jumpstarted and it
    fires up fine. Once the battery is charged the car runs great again
    until the next time this all happens again. Is it my battery? Is there
    something seriously wrong with my car? Any help would be much
    appreciated.

    Does it sit for a while between starts when it won't start as opposed to
    being run regularly?

    Have you tried removing the cables from the battery posts and then
    cleaning the posts and the cable ends?
