My brother needed a new battery for his truck yesterday so we went to Costco for a $99 Group 78 Interstate. Was told that in July Costco changed their battery warranty so that they are no longer a 3 year free replacement. Now it’s prorated about 3ish% per month, so after 18 months it would be about 50% a new one. But, the replacement starts over with a fresh 36 month prorated warranty. We ended up getting it anyways.
I mean it makes sense. Costco was pretty famous for not testing batteries and people exchanging them right before the warranty is up.
So the only option I know of now for a true hassle free 3 year free replacement is buying and warrantying a battery from a Walmart that doesn’t have an auto-repair center. The customer service desk will just return it within the warranty period no problem.
