    Hey all! I posted in this forum back in june looking for help with my 2005 prius that had a dying battery and recommendations on battery replacements and im here to give an update! I ordered with green bean june 15th, the battery arrived to my house june 28th, and my replacement was done on july 8th by a green bean tech. since then my car had returned back to normal, until about a week ago (4 months after replacement) where i noticed slower acceleration, and today when the dreaded triangle of death and warning lights returned to my dash. obviously not everyone’s experience, but this was mine! currently waiting on an email back in hopes theyll quickly come replace this thing under warranty.

    that's the downside of refurbished. at least they are still in business and replaced it eventually. not everyone is that fortunate

    my Camry still working for more than 7+ years. lkq just probably slap them from their yard without any rigorous test (which is time consuming)
