hmmm...did not know this. Maybe that's why mine would never seem to last. I just thought I did not get out and wheel enough and that's why they were always dead and did not like to take a charge. still buy them at Autozone because the guys at my local Autozone will warranty out anything I bring in there including the Optima's with no questions asked. Optima from Autozone will be going into the new rig in a month just because I can take it 2minutes down the road and get a new one if I have any problems with it at all. The only thing that sucks is Autozone won't let you use a coupon code to buy one online.5BrothersFabrication said:

Rebooting this....
The Smart Start Platinum AGM I got from ORiellys in 2017 was DOA yesterday.
This truck has sat for a month+ It has sat that long before no issues.
I jump it off with my portable booster and drive it away. Drive for about 30min then goto Wal-Mart. Come back out....dead....nothing....no interior lights at all.
Jump it back off and home I go.
Truck was seeing 14 volts....alternator 15 volts....battery shows 2.6
Now the fun part. Head to ORiellys for warranty replacement.
"This battery has a 3 year warranty sir."
Awesome...thanks.
"Hmmmm....showing you bought this in March 2017...so it's not under warranty "
Excuse me? Why?!
"Its only a 3 year warranty from purchase date and this July and you bought it in March."
Yea....i know...this is 2018 right?
I'm not typing anymore but 5 more minutes and I had my free replacement.
I've never had an AGM go bad on me. Is what it is. Jeep has sat as long as the truck.....jeep fired right up.
