Bought a Yasa batter with a 5 yr guarantee in Oct 22. Come Aug 23 it failed to hold charge. Bought a good quality CTEC charger and recharged it a couple of times, still wouldn't hold charge. Checked alternator, battery terminals, and current drain with every thing off on the car (80mA)..all OK.
Returned it to Halfords who put a Yuasa tester on it and said the cells were ok so nothing they could do.
Ran with the battery a few weeks longer and still the same. Took it back again, told them it wouldn't hold charge did the same test with same result.
Contacted Halfords customer services explained it all but they stand by their test. Bought a new battery but continued pushing Customer Services with no luck.
Contacted Yuasa who told me they sell my battery with a 1 yr guarantee. Contacted Halfords again who still wouldn’t budge. Got Yuasa operations manager to contact Halfords but they still won’t budge.
DO NOT BUY BATTERIES FROM HALFORDS! They use sharp practice in their sales techniques. ILL NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN.
