They told me the cost would be $350.00 for the battery and $45 for installation. I told the service manager the prices were ridiculously high. He said he already discounted the battery from $400 to $350. They also advised that they normally require 3 to 5 business days to diagnose any issue and then up to a week for the repairs. I found Advanced Auto Parts just down the street from the dealer and their battery was only $244 and they install it at no charge! so I saved $150 and was out in 10 minutes. More
