I bought mine when it had about 62,000 miles on it. It still had the original battery in it and about a month after I got it, of course it crapped out. It's odd that your issue took place while the car was running but if it's ever sounded like it was slow to crank up or like it was struggling a little, it can't hurt to check the battery.
