Twice per year I charge the battery on a CTEK charger .

I have a comprehensive maintenance contract which does include battery replacement, but I am afraid the dealership may try to pull the 'you didn't drive enough miles' trick. Any clue on how to respond if they do? Thanks.
Are you sure the message is not a reference to the key fob? Do you have comfort access?
