My two year old Stinger battery failed. Got jumped by two different roadside folks who said it was fully charged, then took it to the dealer. I guess it’s a fussy beast as they had to go through the charge, discharge/fail cycle many times to get an accurate reading to generate a failure code. Replaced under warranty.
 
Good to hear! Batteries do fail. My Q3 battery failed in 4 years. Changed under warranty.
 
The replacement battery for my mom's Hyundai Elantra (this is a few years back) didn't just fail, it was bad from the getgo; wouldn't hold a charge for more than a couple, three days. Fought with it, unbelieving that a brand new battery could just be bad. But it does happen.
