does anyone know how long the warranty on the factory battery is covered for?

is it 3YR/ 36,000 miles?

i have a 2018 rubicon with 24k miles on it and just a month over 2 years...

wondering if it is still covered under warranty.

not sure why it drained so quickly, never forgot to turn lights off... smh

If it won’t hold a charge, then yes it’s covered. Lots of people have had both of the factory 12V batteries fail early.

Not sure, but my daughter bought a used 2018 Compass Trailhawk with 19K miles. Last week at around 20K miles the Service Auto Start Stop warning came on. She dropped it off at the dealer and they replaced the little battery under warranty.

It's worth trying to get it replaced under warranty, but I think they are 1yr on batteries.

on new vehicles warranties are 3 year “bumper to bumper”. Most batteries should last 5 yesrs

Yes, looking at the warranty, you may even get it prorated outside of the 3/36

No. The company was initially founded in 1919 as a a joint-venture between Fiat and Ercole Marelli. It was a subsidiary of Fiat until 1967. CK Holdings, the holding company for KKR Fund, bought the company in 2018 to be merged with Japanese automotive company Calsonic Kansei. Magnetti Morelli and Calsonic Kansei officially merged in 2019 forming Marelli.

Lucas Industries is a British company founded in 1872.

I know this is an old thread but this is exactly what i was looking for!

I have a 2021 Diesel Rubicon with 31900 miles and yesterday it was starting slowly.. Today it stopped starting all together, i had to jump it to come to work.. It may not start when i leave work..

I hope the dealership will replace both batteries under warranty because i dont want to be stranded.

I guess the Arizona heat killed the batteries quick..

If your battery is defective it should absolutely be covered under warranty.
