12v battery

[Megan_egan]

I have a 2022 Rebel with the eTorque engine, I am already on my 3rd 12v battery. Has anyone else had this problem? It gets hot where I live, but other people I know have not had to replace theirs. Just seems like a battery should last more than 2 years.

No, I haven't had any problems yet. I am into my 5th year with the OEM battery. About once , or twice, a year I put a trickle charger on my truck (usually overnight). I think it helps keep the battery fresh.

Well say the original OEM battery was complete garbage, having to change the battery what amounts to every other year seems a bit excessive.
Either the alternaria cooking the battery or there a bad ground causing the batteries to fail.
Probably the best route is to find a shop that specializes in vehicle charging/starting systems.
