Just got my check from Acura!!
I wasn't sure where to post this, so here it is. I (like many of you) have had battery troubles. They replaced it once. Well I finally got a BIG battery. I bought the Braille B7548 with 945 Cold Cranking Amps 30 sec @ 0F. I was happy.
Now I took my old battery back to the dealership. At first he said there was nothing he could do. So I asked him again. Finally he said "got a receipt" I gave it to him. A couple weeks later. Here is
$113.00 in a check from them. I like it. Now my new battery cost me only $109.00. And it's almost twice the battery of the OEM!! Just wanted to tell you all. I know this was posted here before. But I did a search=but no cigar!

I got (suckered into 
) an extended warranty on my new TL purchase a few months ago and instantly regretted it and knew I paid too much. So I cancelled the warranty and got a full refund, check just came in the mail for over $1G... very happy camper here.
I hope my battery is fine though.

You got it, it failed! But I didn't know that at the time I brought it in. I was just wondering if it would fail based on the track record for the OEM battery. So maybe you still have a chance at this.
That is why I made this thread! I didn't want any of you to "miss out"!
