Seems I've been way out of the loop on this one.  Needed to replace a car battery today and where the heck have 5-7 year battery warranties gone? 3 year warranty?  :headscratch: And the prices :shocked:  Quick, someone get me a beer...

^Weird I was just talking about this yesterday with a friend who had to replace a battery in a Dodge V6 and almost passed out from the cost.

Has it gotten that bad?  When I had to replace the battery in my Hyundai about four years ago it was less than $100.

The Dodge battery was extra large and cost like 275.00 or something.

I guess that's the advantage of driving a Hyundai to get to work rather than an $80,000 BMW.

You might be able to find one today for around $120, but it probably would only have an 18 month warranty.

I paid 235.00 back in February for my daughters 2016 Hyundai.  Absolutely outrageous.
