What Is the Warranty on a Honda Battery?

When you buy a new Honda car, truck, or SUV, you’ll enjoy extensive warranty coverage that includes a Limited Warranty of 3 years/36,000 miles and a Powertrain Warranty of 5 years/60,000 miles. Should you need to replace any parts not covered by either of these warranties, Honda offers a 1 year warranty on new parts and a 3-year/36-mile warranty on Honda Genuine Remanufactured Parts. The warranty coverage for Honda batteries is as follows:

• The original battery that is installed in your new Honda vehicle is covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty for 3 years or 36,000 miles.
• A replacement battery purchased from an authorized Honda dealer like Apple Tree Honda comes with a warranty that provides coverage for 100 months.
