Angry Car is completely dead.

I just bought my 2022 xc40 r design t5(Canada) maybe 2 weeks ago. I had driven it maybe 2 times(back from dealer, and some other drive). It must have under 100km on the odometer. But, when i go up to the car handle to unlock the car....NOTHING, absolutely nothing! I used the emergency key inside the key fob to unlock it, but when I opened the door, the alarm started going off, and there were no lights, nothing. No sounds, nothing. Its like trying to turn on a dead phone. It just doesnt work. We towed it to the dealer, and are awaiting an answer but maybe someone has bad the same problem. Its our first volvo if you are wondering.

Thanks
BTW i am new here and if there is a better spot to put the post, that would be greatly appreciated!

For what its worth, when you manually open the door using the key, the alarm is supposed to go off.

No alarm. Car dead. Not enough battery juice to make a peep or a twinkle of light

Do you think I could have killed the battery by leaving the car running for 4 days? It was locked with charging able in place......

I was referring to OP, but I would see what the dealer says when it's towed in. I don't have much experience with electric/hybrid cars.

Running the car for 4 days is definitely concerning though.
