This is crazy! I went to replace a one maybe two year old Duralast battery that was 100% dead, the guy at the autozone in Mansfield Texas really wasn't that helpful, said the only battery they had was a $126 Duralast gold battery. I needed a battery, and I took what I though was a new battery and I didn't even really look at, because this is the battery right?
So I get it home to put it into my minivan, and I look at it. It's dirty, the positive red protector is off and the battery posts are all scuffed up. Moreover, this clearly has been inside someone's vehicle because underneath the tabs that you left up to check water level, that's filthy in there so this is been in someone's vehicle probably for a year and they put them back on the shelves. I tipped it over and the bottom of it is filthy.
Outrageous, I'm calling the police.
Reaching out to autozone on Twitter. Their regional manager was of no help to me, basically offered no help, don't think he apologized, nothing.
