Most likely the alternator is no longer charging. Your service light will not go off unless the car has been scanned and any problems fixed.

Sabrina, Any large retail parts store can load check your alternator, but it does sound like it's bad if you have a new battery.

Good luck and I'm not going to mention the physical attributes of your vehicle, but I bet it has a nice personality.
