The fact that the car "starts" normally is no indication that the
battery is good. These modern fuel-injected cars start so easily that the
battery can be on it's last legs and the car will still fire right up.
If it were mine, I would take it to NAPA or AutoZone or someplace
similar and have the battery "load-tested"... they can do it right in the
car; and usually do it for free.
