Battery AC DELCO or OEM Subaru

Subaru are known for using cheap batteries, winter just makes it even worse. within the first 2 weeks of buying a 2022 Outback, i junked the battery and put in a great aftermarket one.

Wife’s Ascent had a factory battery that last maybe 2 winters. Replaced it was a yellow top and haven’t had any problems since. Subaru even gave us credit for it so that was nice

My 2007 Tahoe still had the original AC Delco battery in it when I traded it off in 2019. Still turned the engine over like new.

Just recently replaced the 9 year old AC Delco battery in my Impala when it finally went. Was working just fine, then went to start it a few days later, wouldn't crank.

It’s a battery. It doesn’t make a difference. Find an ACDelco one. They usually last the longest for the best price.

I only just replaced the Subaru branded battery a couple weeks ago with another Subaru battery. It comes with a 30 month warranty and supposed to have a 55 lifespan.

Subaru's factory batteries suck. I've had to replace them in several Subaru's that were only like 2 years old. Doubly tough if the car is just sitting for a period of time between uses.

I had Subaru batteries last me only 2 years in upstate NY. I kept getting them for free under warranty. I probably got 4 this way. Finally, the dealer said your alternator is bad and that's why they are going bad (completely bogus). I started going to a local mechanics soon after that and they told me that super OEM batteries are complete garbage.

I have a 2019 Subaru outback. The battery dies every two months and I am left stranded.

The OEM battery sucks I upgraded mine to an AGM with an extra 100 or so CCA. A better battery will also let your auto start stop last longer. Stock battery would never last a stop light for while under load new battery gives me a lot more time even under load.
