My car stopped working

So, I wake up early today to go to Mercedes because some parts are in so I can fix my driver's side mirror and the center console. But I sleep in because my bed's warm.

When I finally get to my car, it won't start.

Key in the ignition, park, position 2... nothing. Nadda. Nishta.

Key in the ignition, park, position 1. ... no lights, nothing.. nadda.. nishta..

WTF.

I do this a few more times. Sigh.

So I call my Stockton area service people and they're like, "Oh, we could send a tow out but it'll cost you."

So I call Mercedes roadside assistance, corporate, "We'll have a mechanic out there in 20 minutes."

I head to work, the guy shows up and replaces the battery.. it was free, covered under warrantee (as I got one last year).

Now I have this issue: Since my car was sitting around for 1.5 weeks doing thing, is my busted up radio wearing the battery down? Did the alternator screw up? Was the battery already on the fritz?

Let's sum up my car problems:
1) Driver's side mirror has this crazy "fog" on it. Water got behind the mirror so the auto-tinting film is all effed up
2) Center console is damage because of shoddy repair men
3) Satellite radio is busted/won't work
4) Car won't start (is it the alternator??)


And I even got my car serviced like 2 weeks ago. Don't they check for things like this?


Heavy sigh.
