QUOTE(Jackofree @ Jan 30 2019, 11:39 AM) last time i used century marathoner only last me about 10 months then I claimed warranty but managed to last another 10 months again then I changed car d May I know how to claim warranty on car battery? Do they give you a replacement straight away? Or they take your battery back to investigate first before they give you a replacement? |

QUOTE(Roman Catholic @ Mar 8 2019, 04:53 PM) Usually what happens is that, the battery reseller would lend to you a spare battery first, while they investigate the problem with the faulty battery that's under warranty. Thank you for your reply.If it's confirmed to be faulty, they would give you a replacement and you have to return back the battery that was loaned to you. That's what happened to my neighbour battery. Keep your Battery Warranty Card in the car always.  At least we can still use the car. |

QUOTE(magnesium @ Mar 9 2019, 11:09 PM) My case, they check with meter, the value below acceptable Can't remember but not voltage value They straight away replace with a new battery Bosch mf QUOTE(Jackofree @ Mar 10 2019, 05:03 PM) I just show them receipt and warranty card then they give me new battery on the spot. I guess they claim it from century after that. Looks like there are different processes for warranty claim a car battery.Thank you for your replies. |

QUOTE(Roman Catholic @ Mar 11 2019, 08:26 AM) To clear any ambiguities, it's best to check online always for Authorized Dealers from the manufacturer website BEFORE making a new purchase. Thanks for the advice.I do this everytime even though I know that this shop is an Authorised Dealer. Will do that on my next purchase. |

Installed a Century Ultramax MF NS60LS battery to the Toyota Vios on 4/8/2017.
Battery died on 7/3/2019. Warranty replacement on 16/3/2019. Shop said the battery cannot retain the charge. |

QUOTE(Roman Catholic @ Apr 7 2019, 07:37 AM) During the recent school holidays, I had the opportunity to drive the latest Innova. Pretty amazed with it for a slow driver like me. Googled that 360LN2-MF and Panasonic pops up more often than other brands.Curiosity got the better of me and I just had to find out what battery was in it. When I popped the hood, that battery had NO BRAMD NAME at all !!! This was the only sticker that was on it....  Who knows for sure, maybe the battery manufacturer didn't want others to know who they were OR .... |

QUOTE(Roman Catholic @ Apr 7 2019, 02:49 PM) My only gripe with the Innova is the height when it comes to cleaning. Not enough leverage even with me being tall. I bought a 2 steps plastic ladder when I had the Toyota Unser.Easy to wash the top. |
