NHTSA Complaint #11286976 — 2017 FORD EXPLORER

I BOUGHT MY EXPLORER BRAND NEW. AT 28,000 MILES THE BATTERY WAS LEAKING AND WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE OTHER DAY I DID AN OIL CHANGE AND NOTICED THE BATTERY WAS LEAKING AGAIN AND CAUSING CORROSION. THE ACID IS CLEARLY VISIBLE ON THE BATTERY. MY VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER 3 YEARS OLD AND UNDER 36 MONTHS. THE BATTERY IS FROM 8/18/18. NOW MY VEHICLE HAS 52000 MILES. THREE DIFFERENT FORD SHOPS COGGIN DELAND, GARY YEOMAN, MULLINAX FORD REFUSE TO REPLACE IT DUE TO IT BEING "ORIGINAL BATTERY". THIS IS POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND NO REASON THIS SHOULD HAPPEN. WHEN I ASKED GARY REP IF THIS WAS COMMON AND THEY STATED "YES WE SEE THIS ALOT AND THATS WHY WE OFFER 7 YEAR BATTERIES". THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WHEN A BATTERY IS BEING USED PER YEAR PER 28000 MILES.
