Hmmm....

Complimentary Battery Check: "Well, sir, I have to tell you, that's about the best looking battery I've ever seen! So clean, so aesthetically appropriate for your vehicle! I honestly can't say when I've seen a finer example of batteryhood. You should be very, very proud."

Do not trust stealerships period. If they seem to like you it’s for one reason alone….you’ve been had.

Mine would go in battery saver mode, so on the last recall I asked them to check the battery. It was bad and replaced under warranty.

That trash can on left is what I would hit .

That's because your car is in high demand on the used market and can they get you to trade it in on this brand new thing that's been sitting on the lot too long?

I guess this is their answer for the letter I just got in the mail for the 4th recall. Now it’s about the battery Lol, oh that’s right it will not have a Remedy till 2 Qtr……..

I bought my own AGM replacement since my service manager said they would only replace the battery with the same OEM flooded battery. I have not had any problems since replacement and BM reset. I think the AGM can take the 15.4v constant charging rate better than the cheaper low capacity OEM battery. I think a charging program revision is needed to resolve the cause of the issue.

What are we looking at here? Mostly battery discharge while parked and then a few short trips that show the charge rate peaks? Not like I've monitored any of this on my own before, but I guess I'm surprised of the rate of discharge.

they should have given you an agm. My service manager lives 3 houses from me. We swap vehicles(23 mav hybrid)He takes it into work with him when I need work.. and I told him if he didn't give me an AGM I would use my loader and move every bit of snow from my house and dump it on his lawn.
