I have a 2013 Kia Soul-base model. After a complete regimen of testing the mechanic found a parasitic voltage drain, very slight but enough to kill the battery after a day or so. After eliminating items one by one it came down to the radio. Went to junkyard, bought same radio and put it in. Problem corrected. Its been two years now and no more problem.
