Multiple possibilities.

Most probably if it does it every time you don't start it for a few days, you have some parasite consumer (a light that does not switch off for example).

Other possibility is that your alternator does not charge enough or the batery, even new, it's faulty.

That could be the alternator or the battery. Try jump starting your car with another car's battery. If it still does not start, it is probably the alternator. If it starts, your battery is dead.


How long do you have to drive around to charge a car battery after jump starting a car?

You should never drive a car around for long after jump starting a dead battery. This puts an enormous strain on the alternator. Alternators are designed to keep a good battery charged, not to charge a dead battery. You can easily burn out a diode in the alternator. Jump start the engine and drive it somewhere and connect a battery charger to the battery and charge it fully.


After not starting your car for 3 days the battery is being drained If you unhook your battery for those 3 days will it save the battery?

If your battery is good and you know your car is draining it then yes, disconnecting your battery from your car will keep your battery charged for much longer than 3 days. Your battery should stay charged way longer than 3 days in normal conditions being hooked up to your car. You should get it checked out and figure out what is draining your battery so fast.


Charging a dead car battery?

To charge a dead car battery, you'll need a compatible battery charger or jumper cables and another vehicle with a working battery. If using a battery charger, connect the positive terminal of the charger to the dead battery’s positive terminal and the negative terminal to a grounded metal point on the car. If jump-starting, connect the positive terminals of both batteries first, followed by the negative terminal of the working battery to the dead battery's negative terminal. Allow the dead battery to charge for a sufficient time before attempting to start the vehicle.
