Got a new battery at Wal-Mart and installed it at the dealership. Started right up and is running fine!

I complicated the **** out of this.

Thanks for the support!

I have a feeling you'll be back at square one again after this 12v battery is ran down.

Hard to say really. If the battery under the hood is really 4 years old, then it's possible that it was the issue. The dealership did say that the ima system could be also giving me some issues.

They said the core was shot in the battery I had in it and that the 12v battery typically is working if it's at 14v when the car is running and 12v when it isn't. Idfk.
