Follow up

i was just living with the slow cranking starter but then I started having random false alarms going off on the car so after looking up that issue, I had the battery tested And it was bad after just under 2 years so I replaced it and so no more slow cranking and no more 3:00 am car alarms.
I feel kinda dumb for not checking the battery sooner but it always would turn over and never went dead. The good news it was still under a warranty. So no money spent.
