Do you do a lot of short trips? Back in the 80's my dad had an issue with the battery not getting fully charged. We lived less than a mile from where he worked, so he would start the car, drive a short few minutes to work, then shut it down, then start it up again, drive it another few short minutes to work and shut down again. The grocery store and the library were also very close. After he started having problems, he used to take the car out for a longer drive once a week or so and all was good.
