First steps.....
Check the car battery first. Does the battery fluid pucker in the wells? Fill with distilled water if necessary.
Are the terminals clean? Cover the access ports tightly and use baking soda and those battery pads on the terminals and use vaseline jel on the terminals.
Second, check the charge level. Get a voltmeter or a battery charge meter that plugs into cigarette lighter. Low voltage is one thing, high voltage is another. Alternator / voltage regulator is suspect.
The most likely thing is that you have either a short to ground or you have a device that is on all the time. Have you checked that the interior light in the passenger area is not on all the time?
Happened to me once already thats to an idiot passenger.
