Exactly a guy on the Lexus forum explained it wrong as he made it sound like he got free batteries for life. I’m the kid who puts his hand on the stove.talked to the Costco tire guy about the warranty and why its where it is now. He said too many folks were bringing perfectly good ones in and getting new ones close to when the replacement warranty would end . Costco has no way to check them so they just get a new one . Costco don't care because its billed back to supplier anyways .
like computer return abuse a decade earlier, abuse of the return policy killed the battery warranty
Say you bought a battery Oct 2016 and it had a 42 mo warranty back then. You could get as many batteries as you wanted in 42 mos. Get 7 in a week (but why, what is the benefit of such a fraud?). So if you’re gonna lie, just get a free battery on day 1,276 (back then). What is the purpose of saying in that guy’s case he got a new battery maybe 3x in the warranty period. Maybe it made him feel plush.
I get that we’re not a very honest society. I went to the dr in Feb and I’m the guy who looks at the claim. Said I was treated for depression, bp, bmi, and diabetes, when it was none of the above. And all was denied by Blue Cross. When my wife had Aetna all the bogus services were approved.
