An analysis of batteries replaced under warranty shows that many claims could have been avoided had the batteries been maintained in a full state of charge.
Batteries must be maintained at all times when vehicles are at a retailer whether they are new cars, used cars, in storage (back lot), on display, or customer cars in for maintenance or repairs.
Batteries replaced due to lack of maintenance will not be covered by warranty.
