Consumer Description
MY BATTERY EXPLODED. THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL BATTERY I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW. I GOT IN MY CAR, TURNED THE KEY AND HEARD A HUGE EXPLOSION. THE CONCUSSION FROM THE EXPLOSION ACTUALLY MOVED MY SHIRT. THE BATTERY HAD EXPLODED IN THE TRUNK. NOTHING HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I BABY THIS CAR AND TAKE IT IN EVERY 3 THOUSAND MILES FOR MAINTENANCE. THE BATTERY WAS IN PIECES AND BATTERY ACID WAS EVERYWHERE. IF I WAS STANDING BY THE TRUNK WITH IT OPENED I WOULD'VE BEEN BADLY HARMED.
