Default anyone work at a parts store...?

ive had an Optima red top in the Formula for about 2.5 years now, and it just started leaking from the neg terminal.. they have a 3 year free replacement for them, but i dont remember where i bought it from... so im looking for a hookup. its BS that a $150 battery is leaking already

Go to any advance auto, just tell them you lost the receipt and you bought it from another store, chances are good theyll just replace it.

I say just get a new one, and set the old on to the side somewhere. Yeah, you will be out $150, but hey at least you won't have to worry about it anymore.
