Battery OEM Nissan or ODYSSEY

OEM Nissan Battery

I've owned a 2011 Nissan Sentra since it only had 10 miles. It's been 15 years and the only repairs I have had to do were my own mistakes (hitting curbs and such). I've only ever changed the bands once, but never touched anything else on the engine. The AC/Heater work the same as day 1. One of my windows won't go down with its own button, but I can still control it from the driver side. I've done basic maintenence, oil changes, new brake pads, new windshield wipers, etc. But haven't needed any major work done. Even the batteries have lasted in the car (though this specific year and model had a recall for faulty battery terminals).

The first 10 years or so, I drove it EVERYWHERE in CA. Road trips every weekend and driving through not small car friendly terrain.

In the 15 years, I crashed it twice. No serious injuries and no car blowing up (I've heard so many rumors that Nissans blow in accidents.. they don't anymore than any other car would). It's running a little funky now for the past 2 years, but again, completely my fault. The last crash was full speed at a curb and damaged the mainframe.

It's a little over 200,000 miles and I'm finally looking to get a new car, but im scared I won't find one as reliable. I've had this car since I was 18, I'm 32 now!

Pros: AC/Heater work well, batteries lasted long
Cons: one window button faulty
Vehicle: Nissan Sentra
Mileage: 321868 km

OEM Nissan Battery

The original Nissan battery in my 2015 still lives on in my 78 vette. I replaced the Nissan battery because I was going on a 7600 mile total trip and didn't want to take chances.

Mileage: 12231 km

I decided to get a 2019 titan at 55k miles haven’t had any major problems! But they do have an electrical problem with the battery. Fix: disconnect a grey plug that’s on the negative cable! It regulates the alternator voltage. It can cause the battery to fail quicker over time! But I like that the truck is always running on 8 cyl and still uses a power steering instead of electric steering!

Pros: no major problems, 8 cylinder engine, power steering
Cons: electrical problem with battery
Vehicle: Nissan
Mileage: 55000 km

That said, do not buy another Subaru battery. They are way over priced and extreme garbage. You'll be replacing it again in a year to 2 years; they are notorious for having failed cells in just a couple years. If you want something that will last a long time buy an AGM from Odyssey.

Pros: last a long time
Cons: failed cells, over priced
Vehicle: Subaru
