The first thing on any platform manufactured from about 2014 to present is charge the battery to 12.5 and load test it. The date you purchased the battery, or the sticker does not indicate the actual age of the battery.
Do not assume that the battery is ok just because it will charge to 12.5 volts.

Also the battery terminals are part of the important cables to check don't forget where the ground is on the body and also the positive lead that goes to the starter.
