I have purchased a exide battery 9A with sr. no. 313579 on[protected], which is now total dead as per the Exide service centre people at B-24 Okhla Delhi, and the same exide battery is in the 24th month of its purchase.
Now is I have purchased the same battethe issue ry @1400/- and as per the warranty card there is 45% discount for the same.
But authorised dealer of Exide "Smart's Motor Agencies" at new delhi is saying that I have to pay Rs. 1100/- for the same coz the battery is costing 1950/-.
My first question is if I have purchased the same battery @1400/- before 2 years (proof with bill), then why the exide dealer is saying that the charges is Rs. 1950/-
2. Why are Exide people doing fun with their customer on the name of warranty?
I am going to start blogging about exide's type of fun service on all social sites.

bought 2 new batteries for my diesel 1 ton truck after my 5 year old batteries crapped out ,these were bought in febuary of 2011 ,worked fine till june of 2011 and then suddenly started to lose there charge and would not start my truck .took them back to the doge dealership in my area and they said they failed the load test(DUHH) already new this ,they replaced the batteries at a $70.00 fee of course and then phone me 10 days later to tell me that exide says I froze my batteries in + 20 celcius weather and there is no warranty.

DEAR EXIDE YOU ARE A FRAUD FOR SELLING FAULTY BATTERIES AND HAVE THE NERVE TO TELL PEOPLE THAT ITS ALL ARE FAULT,WHEN CLEARLY YOU HAVE POOR WORKMANSHIP OR PRODUCT GOING INTO YOUR FINAL SALEABLE PRODUCT YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF FOR THIS,IF I WERE SOME POOR SCHMUCK OFF THE STREET AND DID NOT KNOW ANY BETTER ,BUT I AM A MECHANIC AND I KNOW IF A BATTERY HAS BEEN FROZE .TO ME THIS IS A COP OUT WHEN YOU MAKE THE DEALER PHONE ME WHEN HE WELL KNOWS THAT THIS IS BULL*#IT.

AS FOREVER BUYING ANOTHER EXIDE ,KISS MY *SS I WILL MODIFY MY VEHICLE TO FIT OR ACOMODATE ANY OTHER TYPE BATTERY BUT YOURS,, OH BY THE WAY NOW I KNOW WHY YOU POSTED A PROFIT LAST YEAR,AND WERE ABLE TO BY UP OTHER BATTERY MAKERS.


IN CLOSING I GUESS WHAT IM SAYING IS BUYERS BEWARE OF EXIDE THEY DO NOT FOLLOW THROUGH ON WARRANTY

Exide-- Tudor make battery worse battery - poor RND - technology- fails -- buckls out soon -- never ever go for this make--- mob no. [protected]-- Goa-- purchased at Milson Battery ,St.Inez ,Panaji-Goa Owner says Exide people are not co-operating and are not interested in maintaing customer complains- in one word customer comes last as far as complains are concern-- when contacted Mr.Mr.Rahul Nasalpure from mumbai ,n Ajit Prasad service Engineer - Goa -- Blaffed over the complain ,etc . can one afford to replace new bat. with no fault . wen asked for the report -- Ajit refused to give -- this attutude itself is evidence of willfully try to put customers to monetory losses--- Ajit n Rahul even went to an extent saying u do what u want --- we r helpless-- Buy a new battery.... wasting my precious time he left me high n dry.. next option is to proceed for justice in court of law -- to conclude i pray for justice to EXIDE.

We (Orion Nissan) are authorized dealer of Nissan . Customer complained about the starting trouble and we found the battery faulty. Also called the batmobile service and got the written confirmation.we were given the address of the main office in Vashi and we have given the battery for replacement . we are not given any kind of receipt or any kind of writing confirmation on this. I fail to understand what kind of service is this. tomorrow if they deny of not receiving the battery where would we complain.Being such a big brand and we also as a main dealer are not getting any kind of service battery for the same how do we convence the customer that exide is not giving a authorized dealer a service battery.

There have also tried calling the seniors of exide batteries but no one is picking up the phone.

Complaint:
I have given my battery for replace under warrenty period(still 4 months remaining for warrenty period).
It was working fine before 1and 1/2 month, but suddenly it stops working. As per my mechanic suggestion I have given this for replacement.
But Company is applying some terms & condition and returing it without replacement.

I need favour for the same.

I had bought Exide Battery thinking that it is one of he better one and the name it carries.
Realized that it s one of the worst in terms of product and service.
I bought the battery from New Delhi Motor House A22-23 Ajit Arcade Kailash Colony New Delhi Mfg 210 Sr No 53882 Waranty card no 210W[protected] datd 14 Amy 2011.
Its not ben even a month and the battery went down.
I made a complait on[protected], people attending were rude in their response, After constant call they came and left without doing anything. They said if yu have problem you need to go to the dealer or get t recharged.
I feel Exide India should stop dealing in Batterries if their product is so bad.
I also see on the net so many complants and Exide India has no response

Simply too bad

I purchased an 800 va inverter feb 2010 . couple of days back the battery failed. when contacted the inverter supplier ( microtek agency) they said the battery comes under replacement warranty for only one year and repairable warranty for the next year. The battery is apparently beyond repair, and since the warranty has crossed on year , i am to purchase a new one. the warranty card we have only " 2 years warantee mentioned" and no other condition.
Is this valid? Am being taken for a ride? do ihave a chance in consumer cout? please advice.
regards
Arun

on 25/08/08 i purchased an invared 500 battery BN-IE8.SN-52951.from noja maruti mirjapur darbhanga,BIHAR.i was surprised to find the battery havig faulty inback up and charging problem after one month from purchasing.i reported the problem to th salesman a above and after many efforts salesman replaced the battery with iva tubular SN-96745.AFTER two years.but same fault occured after two moths.this whole process occurd within warranty period.i again rported this issue to salesman.he refused to take action rgarding this problem.now i request you to look into the matter and do needful action.waiting for your reply for further action.

I had purchase an Exide Battery for my inverter for my home use. I was told that warranty of battery is of 2 years. But after an year there was some problem in my Battery. When I had lounged a complaint for the same, I was told there is some default in my inverter but my invertor enginer told me that my inverter is fine. Every time I lounged a complaint I was told the same thing. And as soon as my warrant got over I was told "there is fault in battery but your warranty period is over. So we can't do anything". Hope if can file a sue against Exide battery for cheating the customer.
