Question Battery question

I bought my 03 CL-S in May of 03 and my battery completely died. I never seen a battery last only 2 years, would Acura replace my battery under warrantee or there is no warrantee on the battery?

I belive your OEM battery should come with 2 yr free replacement, and then up to 100 month pro-rated replacement.
If its more than 2 years, you might be better of buying a battery on your own.
My dealership charges $140 for a crapy Acura battery.... (including installation)_

I think they will change it. I just got a new one at the dealer. I think they told me the original one was 3 years/36 months.

Yes, w/out a doubt, check the dealer, the proration lasts several years & the new battery from Acura (far from crappy to whoever said that) will have a 100 month warranty ... beat that!


BTW, mine only lasted 2 years & I only paid 50%...

DieHard battery also has 100 month pro-rated warranty.
50% @ dealership price for a new battery could be a lot.....
