Possible causes of battery failure that are not the result of faulty manufacture:

Incorrect or under-specified battery type fitted to car

Charge system problem (low or high voltage) creating an over-charge or under-charge situation.  A low voltage cause the battery to sulphate whilst a high voltage will literally cook the internal components of the battery.

Repeated deep discharge (heavy accessory loads, car phones, lighting, boat accessories, etc)

Prolonged storage of the car or very minimal use.  A battery will generally sulphate and will never recover its full state of charge.

Electrical faults (short, excessive loads)

Any battery modifications such as acid additives, lead terminal changes, or any other contaminates.

Damage to the battery caused by the consumer or other in-car fault.

 

WARRANTY

You may claim under the warranty by returning the battery to the place of purchase with the original purchase receipt and completed warranty card for the warranty adjudication procedure. You must bear any expense you may incur in making the claim.
