Hyundai Battery Warranty Explained (Alberton)
It's a frustrating situation. Your two-year-old Hyundai is dead, but the dealer says the battery is "not covered" by the car's 7-year warranty.
This is a common and unfortunate confusion. Here's the honest explanation.
Your Car's Warranty vs. The Battery's Warranty
Your Hyundai's 7-year warranty covers the engine, gearbox, and electronics. The battery, however, is considered a "wear and tear" item, just like brake pads and tyres.
Most car manufacturer warranties only cover the battery for 12 months (or 24 at most).
Our 24-Month "Peace of Mind" Warranty
This is why our solution is better. When you buy a replacement battery from us, you aren't relying on a limited car warranty.
You are getting a brand new, 24-Month Battery Warranty directly from top brands like Willard and Exide. This gives you two full years of peace of mind.
How We Protect Your Warranty
A battery warranty only covers manufacturing defects. It does not cover failure from a faulty alternator.
That's why our service is essential. When we install your new battery, we always perform a free alternator test. This proves your car's charging system is working perfectly, fully validating your new 24-month warranty from day one.
