It was a P.O.S. Panasonic battery that is known to die prematurely. Only had 28k miles on the car when it died and had to get it replaced.
They use some crap Panasonic battery.
Just had to replaced my battery in my 2022 Mazda 3. I’ve always heard people say the batteries are crap in these cars. There’s no way you should be replacing a OEM battery yet. They use some crap Panasonic battery.
I had a 2004 Scion xb back in the day that was made in Japan. Had to get rid of it after the engine developed excessive oil consumption. Had a hell of a battery in it. Panasonic brand.
Yeah, the oem Panasonic battery is easy to kill. I replaced mine (2022 Turbo) with an AGM type. Most all batteries are made by Johnson Controls, under different names. The cheapest price I found was $179 with a 4 year warranty at Walmart. Everstart Platinum group 35. Was a 10 min job to remove and replace. They can even test your old one. The agm type is in the deep cycle family, it can be discharged quite a bit without any issues, the stock battery (flooded acid type) is easy to damage.
My 2019 Mazda 3 died on me randomly a couple months ago. The dealership ran a test on it and it came out fine. I changed it anyway as it was a stock 5 year old battery. It’s been fine since, even in the -20°C temps where I am.
I just replaced the battery on my eco drive from maybe 2008ish? Battery itself was 14 bucks on ebay, oem brand(Panasonic). Swap took 5 minutes.
My original Panasonic lasted seven years in my car when new
After the original battery, i replaced it with a Panasonic battery (nasa ₱5k that time) in 4th quarter of 2019. Etong panasonic battery life, last June 2024 ko lang napalitan (after 4 to 4.5yrs of service )????
Out of stock yung Panasonic so pinagtyagaan ko nalang yung Motolite priced at ₱7k recently (shucks i hope this battery lasts kahit 2yrs).
Panasonic made batteries for Subaru years ago, black top and white case that you could just barely see through. Those bastards would run 7 or 8 years consistently before being replaced….
