New to me 2010 Corolla S from CarMax. Went somewhere, parked for a while, came back, car wouldn't start. This happened twice on different days. Second time, the AAA guy who gave me a jump start somehow knew it wasn't the battery, but rather the alternator that was the problem. Took it to AutoZone, they tested, sure enough, alternator was bad. Had CarMax replace the alternator, problem did not recur, but I returned the car anyway w/in the 30 days after reading how many problems this year Corollas had...
