Consumer Description

WE HAD TWO BATTERIES LEAK ACID, CAUSED SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS IN DAMAGE TO REPAIR WIRES AND HOSES THAT WERE DAMAGED BY THE LEAKING BATTERY ACID. WE WONDER IF THE DEALERSHIP IN NORTHERN VIRGINIA WAS CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE BATTERIES TO GENERATE REPAIR BILLS FOR THEIR BUSINESS. *NLM
