Does the security red light stays flashing even with the car off? key out of the ignition and the door is open or if the doors are closed and unlocked? I am having trouble if I do not drive the car for two days straight the car is dead. I have had to recharge my battery several times and I am not sure what is draining the battery. Everything is off inside the car so I am baffled to why this is happening. Any suggestions please? Thanks

if the security light is on or stays on there is a problem with it. but yours sounds like a parasitic drain on battery. you can check it your self if you have a volt meter or test light. see link.
