    Battery warranty, covered?

    Hi all, just wandering if battery is covered with the vehicle warranty? Car is 4 years old and still left with one year of factory warranty, car could not start this morning and battery indicator on a battery itself was black .
    Also, can they be charged ?

    I contacted VW assist during the warranty period for a failing battery. It was replaced without question by the road side mechanic.
    That was back in the old days of 3 year warranties, if I remember correctly it was about a month or two prior to it ending.
    After that I purchased a CTEK battery charger and ensure I connect each car up a few times per year to condition the batteries.

      looks like its only 2 years , this is from VW website: Engine starting batteries have a 2 year unlimited kilometre warranty.
