I bought a Bosch agm battery for my truck from Pep Boys about two years ago. I couldn't start the truck without a jump yesterday / Christmas Day and had it tested at Pep Boys today. It failed and Pep Boys replaced it free of charge. I didn't have a receipt but Pep Boys had the purchase recorded in their system, so simple it felt a lot like a costco return/exchange but better since Pep Boys not me lugged the batteries around within the store. I would definitely consider and recommend buying auto and boat batteries from Pep Boys in the future. By the way, I'm glad it tuned out to be a battery problem v something else in the truck, so far anyway.

Good for them. Love hearing the positive stories...usually just hear about the negatives.
