Eric, as I shared in our email communication, we fully stand behind our warranty for the battery you purchased. The warranty clearly states that the parts are covered, not labor. These were the terms at the the time you purchased the battery that were agreed to. We are happy to stand behind this warranty and happy to take care of it for you.

2 months to respond, not sure why I'm surprised. I called, emailed and went in person and could not get management to speak to me. 2017 Nissan Sentra, silver. The tag they put on my car said my car was white. Maybe they put the rebuilt transmission in a white Sentra. My name is Kristen Perkins. I'm thinking the large banner on the side of the building that says rental cars for $35 a day should come down if that's truly not possible. False advertisement. I would love to get reimbursed for all the time and money waisted. I returned my car three times after it was "fixed". The last time I went back they said my tires were bad, not transmission problem. Ironically I had no tire issues before they got ahold of my car!!! My whole car vibrated after they got ahold of it. Never an issue before. There was no accident or anything that would cause that. The transmission went out in the middle of the road and it was towed.
