Well not forever but 54 months and counting. Baltimore reaches 90 degrees in the summer, and below freezing in the winter. These temperatures can be tough on a battery.

In fact my battery has outlasted tires, brakes and window motors.

 

mine lasted 3 years 40K miles

Your time is coming

 

to know. I am approaching 36 months and may just change mine out of fear of getting stuck in the middle of Baltimore. J/k I was just there a month ago or so on my way down south.

 

I'm in Colorado and we certainly have extremes of temperature variance from season-to-season. The OEM battery lasted for five good years, but when it went there was little warning. It was just dead as a doornail! A new battery brought everything back, but there is a lifespan to be aware of.

You're the exception - not the rule. Typically, all you'll get is about 3 years out of most batteries.

 

yeah mine made it just passed the 40k/3 1/2 years

It didn't drop like a stone though, it slowly faded untill my car wouldn't fire up with ease when turning the key. It would struggle but the damn thing was working when i junked her

 

In a month:

So did you buy a new battery?

 

you are lucky if you get more than 2 years in phoenix.

 

mine lasted until last month, roughly 5 years 68,000 miles... Baltimore MD and DC

 

im at 2 1/2 years with 68,000 miles and tons of hrs listening to music with the car off

 

HAHA you know him too well.

 

wooohoo...guess the battery life in the mid-atlantic region is kick-@ss!!

 

By the looks of it... My car still has the OEM Nissan battery

It's an 03 and has about 67.5k on the clock.

 

HOping mine lasts till my Z is 5 years old, can't see it happening though. The battery in the GF's Maxima lasted 36 months and 1 day, just out of warranty.

 

Mine too. 2004 base model with 60112 miles on it. Hours of listening to music with the engine off as well.

 

Mine lasted 4 yrs 1 month 15 days and 67,230 miles. 2004 Enthusiast model.
