Battery Supply Issue

[20ducks]

Why is the lead time for an new, under warranty replacement AGM battery 6 months plus? Dealer installed a standard battery in the meantime.

I'm a little confused--did your 2020 GT come with an AGM battery? And it died still under warranty?

Yes. It was replaced 10 months ago with a non-AGM battery. That also went bad..

I'd be more concerned why you are replacing batteries this often.

As part of the replacement process, has the dealer performed an electrical checkout of the car?

 

[20ducks]

A thorough check was performed by 2 different technicians over 2 days.

Mustangs really get AGM batteries as standard equipment now? Mine is (was) standard flooded lead-acid.

Is the car driven regularly?

Is the size/model/type battery correct for the car and climate it's being used in?

Two batteries in two years though...
