ACDelcoGold 94RAGM (88864542) 36 Month Warranty AGM BCI Group 94R Battery

I bought this battery for my wife's Cadillac. The battery in her SUV was over 6 years and due for replacement. She will leave her car parked for a two or three days only to come back to a dead car. So I replaced the battery with this OEM battery and save me a little bit of money in the process, this battery cost me less than the price at the dealership, and local parts store did not carry the battery and the ones that carry them didn't have them in stock. The battery was the right fit, easy to install. She has not had any issues starting her car, the battery starts the car right up even in freezing temperatures after a few days of the car being parked.

The main issue I have is the handling of the package by the Amazon delivery person. The battery alone weighs around 53lbs., and care needs to be taken when moving it. After reading other reviews, I was concerned about the delivery and chatted with two different Amazon support people about having the box pointing "this end up". The package had two sides with red arrow stickers pointing up to indicate how the box should be facing. I also left delivery instructions in the order about this. However, the delivery person did not pay attention to any of this and put the box sideways. Luckily, a family member got the box right after delivery and put it the correct way. I did call Amazon to tell them about this issue, and I hope that someone finally does something to prevent it from occurring again.The box the battery came in is thick cardboard. There were styrofoam sheets on each side and a lot of bubble wrap to cover up and fill the remaining area. The styrofoam sheets were somewhat crushed because of the box mishandling and who knows what else, and there were styrofoam bits everywhere, which I had to get a vacuum with a hose out to clean up.The battery itself seemed in good condition with no noticeable leaking or damage. I checked the battery charge, and it was 12.6 volts. The battery was brand new, and the manufacture date was the same month I ordered the battery.The price for the battery was the best I saw online, and I did not have to ship my old battery back. I took my old battery to an auto parts store, and they gave me $10 store credit even though I did not buy the battery there.It is probably better to order the battery when the temperature is not really hot or really cold outside. Also, do not wait until your battery dies before replacing it. If your battery is more than a few years old and you see the charge on your old battery when not in use is only around 11.6 volts, it would be a good idea to replace it before you get stuck with a dead battery in your car.If your battery is placed in an area of your car that requires a vent hose, this battery has 2 vent holes and comes with 1 plug (attached to the red cover piece for the positive terminal) for the unused vent hole. It does not come with a vent hose or elbow, and you should just use the parts that were on the battery you are removing.Excluding the delivery issue, I would recommend ordering this battery from Amazon.

Really heavy battery. Little more difficult to install than anticipated but once installed it worked immediately and seems to be working well. Fully charged upon delivery.

The battery came packaged in a heavy-duty cardboard box with spray foam around it to ensure that it would not move in transit. I had to cut into the foam to remove the battery from the box. It does fit my 2019 Jeep Sahara JLU, so there you go. Just a heads-up that this is a 12.4-inch battery, which is appropriate for a Wrangler with a towing package. However, the factory-size battery for this application is 10.95 inches without towing package.The battery will fit if you remove a clip in the battery tray. The hold-down will still clamp down on this battery. The difference is the longer length and the higher CCA rating.

I purchased it June 2024, with a 3 year warranty. In the 4th month, it died, and would not hold a charge or able to be jumped. I tried calling ACDelco (the maker of the battery), and they had no idea how to initiate a return / replacement…… and there is no option given when I tried to return through Amazon.

Perfect fit, Mounted in amazing, Has same cranking amps as the dead battery. Great quality & 3year warranty thru manufacturer. Saved $60 - $80 delivered next day. Will buy again.
