I purchased 7 of these Duracell over the past 10 years. Before I started purchasing these batteries other manufactures auto batteries used to last more than 7 years. All of the Duracell auto batteries I purchased would not last more than 2 to 3 years and some of the replacement battery under the 3 year warranty also didn't last more than 2 to 3 years. I don't know what has happened to the manufacturing of these batteries or where the company has been cutting corners. I might as well go for the cheapest offbrand battery I can find from now on.

The only reason this my battery gets 3 stars instead of 1 or 2 is because every time it has gone dead it was in my driveway and not the side of the road. It is only a year and a half old. I don't think I have the receipt. Can I return it for a replacement? My last battery in my old vehicle gave out at 13 years, and while I certainly didn't expect that from this one, I DID expect more than 18 months...

I was in the market for an automotive battery for my wife's car (2007 Kia Amanti). I actually went to a different retailer at first due to the reviews I had read; however, that plan didn't work out. At this point, my wife and I decided to go to Sam's; mainly because we've always been treated right at Sam's Club, and we know that what ever type/brand they sell, it would have a great warranty. We were surprised to find "Duracell" brand automotive batteries at Sam's! I'm not familiar with Duracell auto batteries, but I know their regular batteries are the best. We were presently surprised at the price, and as we suspected, the warranty was as good as any brand in the industry (3 yr. free replacement and 8 year pro rated after that). After doing some research on Duracell automotive batteries, and finding out they're made by East Penn, a huge battery manufacture in the UNITED STATES of AMERICA, we mad the purchase from our local Sam's. We haven't had the battery very long, and I usually wait until after some use before I write a review, but I feel very confident about this purchase. Duracell is one of the biggest and best names in batteries, and Sam's Club is one of the biggest and best retailers with the best battery warranty per price in the business. How can I go wrong!

I live in Florida and it lasts for 2 years and 2 months. The warranty is 3 years. The headache is your car die more often than you need it. I am NOT highly recommend this battery because it doesn't last as long as it said. I will get a free replacement (I hope) and if the new one dies shortly after 3 years, I will find and switch to a better battery to save the headache of getting stranded every 2 or 3 years.

We purchased one for my wife's SUV before the old battery failed, it was close. We paid much less and same warranty or better, (3 years) as other batteries showed. We both liked these batteries for cost and warranty and were happy with battery we purchased for our house generator too.

Bought new 5/28/18 it died and was replaced under warranty 10/30/19 the replacement died today 3/14/20. Yea its under warranty but its a drag to have to have it go bad then pull it out of my daughters car, and then take it in and then reinstall it. I won't be buying the Duracell brand again.

I bought battery July 1, 2017 and it completely died on me November 5, 2018. 1 year and 4 months too early. Totally disappointed. This is not safe when you are somewhere stuck and by yourself. The only good thing, I kept my receipt, called prior to see if they had it stock and was replaced for free. I'm giving it one more try, based on positive/negative reviews. This time around I'm going to pay more attention and have it checked when it gets close to a year. If it happens again, i'm going to change to another brand.

Very disappointed. Just got on August 2016, and after around 8 months, all of sudden it dies. In August 2016, when I was in the market to purchase a battery, I saw some review that not many people happy with this brand/model. But I still bought it as I have Duracell before and it didn't gave me any problem. I was wrong. On top of that, after few weeks/month I still bought again one more for my wife car. I am a student with very busy scheduled. And this misshape almost destroyed my entire day. I wish I have trusted the reviews. Thanks to Sams Club that they change it for no cost. But Sams Club may want to investigate if Duracell is compromising the battery quality. Thanks

I currently have two Duracells in use. One that was bought almost 4 years ago with the 3 yr & 8 yr prorated warranty failed but SAMs took good care of me with a replacement. However they no longer have the prorated warranty after the three year period. Now at the first sign of sluggish starting I either have the batteries tested or go ahead and replace it before it fails and I get stuck calling AAA or jump starting it until I can replace it. It looks like 3 1/2 years use is a good bet and time to replace these batteries.

I don’t know some of the reviews about Duracell batteries.People complaining there junk there made by East Penn who also makes Deka and diehard batteries I’ve had mine know for going on 6 years maybe check your alternators before writing a nasty review
