Guarantee is a joke. ******* product and useless service

My experience is that this is a poor quality product. It worked for the first few months then stopped working and wouldn't start the engine anymore. Continuous fights with the dealer who said Maxim wouldn't honor the guarantee (battery was under a year old) and I was put in contact with the rep who told me the battery was damaged and that's why the guarantee was void. I asked for a formal report on the battery assessment and received nothing. I then had to fight for them to return my battery so that I could at least get a refund on the lead and they returned a different battery. Please avoid these people like the plague and support an established battery brand.
