Dead Battery

[H2-USA]

Another Leaking Battery at the Positive Terminal
Tally Up another one (2003 H2). I noticed something leaking in the drivers side wheel well, under the battery area, and also dripping on the sway bar. After opening the hood I found a puddle in the battery tray. I removed the battery to find a buddle of white ooze, where the battery acid had been digesting the 4 tray bolts, as well as the paint under the plastic tray.
SCREW battling with the dealership. I headed out and purchased an Optima Yellow top and after a bit of cleanup,the installation was complete and almost forgotten about ..... except for the $160 price tag.
If you haven't checked your original battery yet, here's your wake up call to take alook.
