Interstate Batteries Reviews 

Ok i see alot of bs on here.I guess everything would be based on type of employee you deal with.Assholes or ones that care about you and there business.I myself bought an interstate in NC I live in maryland.I was in fact sold an old battery out of date in NC it went dead like 14 months after I bought it.Called interstate in Glen Burnie Md.Delt with Thomas.I explained what happened and he checked date and said it was out of warranty but if I had the receipt he'd take care of it in which he did because i was sold an old battery.Thank you Thomas and Interstate battery.Your employee should be promoted for caring about your customers and your business.Hats off to you Thomas and thank you

Scott and his team at the University Park, FL location went far above and beyond when my car had more than just a battery issue. They found a simple fix for something that would have cost hundreds to take it into the shop. Thank you so much for helping me out today!!

Everyone on this site is 100% accurate. I purchased an Interstate battery for almost 300 dollars to have the "trusted" name and reliability, as well as the 3 year full replacement warranty. A year later the battery just died in my truck. Called the distributor (not a shop) that I purchased from and got the total run-around on an exchange.

Not looking for something for nothing- that's WHY I purchased what I did and spent the extra money. IN CASE. Not only was I treated like a fool (I've been building high performance cars for most of my adult life) but the refused to exchange the faulty battery. NEVER AGAIN. Take this as a word of warning folks- DO NOT trust the Interstate name anymore- it's clearly not the same company and they are trying to live off of that originally prestigious name...

I bought a FAYTX24HL for my 96 Harley this past April, now 12 -1/2 months later the battery and the bike came out of hibernation, and lasted 3 or 4 rides this year. then nothing, won't start the bike or take a charge. Brought it back to the Interstate dealer (real dealer not a shop) and was told I could get a core charge for it and nothing else. My John Deere lawn tractor has an Interstate in it as well, almost a year old. My 2016 Jeep still has its original battery, but none of them will ever see another Interstate battery!

Interstate SRM-24 RV Deep Cycle Battery failed at 14 months; just after the 12 month warranty expired. Was installed in a new RV with a solar charging system and when out of the RV last winter, on a trickle charger. Will never purchase another Interstate Battery of any type again. Same Group Series 24 battery at Sam's Club is $91 versus $159 for this junk Interstate battery. Same 12 month warranty but much less expensive with better reliability from previous experience.

Brought my truck in to get the battery replaced and the MANAGER was so RUDE to my I left without buying a battery
Stay clear of this JERK

Fantastic experience in Portland! The owner is an outstanding man. Extremely knowledgeable. Straight shooter. Fantastic customer experience.

Had an interstate battery in my dump trailer, only use was to lift and lower the dump bed, lasted 1.5 years, would not hold a charge after that. Called customer service to see if they'd do anything and they even told me that it only had a 6 month warranty on it, that should tell you something about quality.

Had a 8 month old $230 Interstate Battery Fail. Fully charged overnight and wouldn't test over 10 volts. Charged it again overnight with different charger just to make sure. Tested 9.4 volts. Brought it to the Interstate retailer in Fargo. First guy bench tested it and said it was still good and there must be something wrong with my car cables or starter. When I explained to the 19 year old, I have been an electrician for over 40 years and a car has never started on 9 volts, he sent me to his manager. He also stated the battery tested just a little weak and it was probably my cables, even though I could see his meter read under 10 volts. These bozos are obviously given a script to send unknowing people on a wild goose chase, when in fact their battery is clearly bad. They did honor the warranty but certainly not in an honorable way. I'm sure they use these tactics on all customers. A new, fully charged battery should hold 12.5 volts and up. 11.5 volts is a weak battery, under 10 volts is junk and won't start any car.

Only buy from Wal Mart. If you buy a interstate battery and have a problem. You have to take it to were you bought and wait for them to charge it. Then Thay will test it and tell you it is your vehicle not their battery. Wal Mart will hand you a new battery.

A quick note to say "Thank You" Thomas for this morning's "top shelf" customer service at the El Paso/Gateway location. Your assistance and informational support regarding my dead deep cycle battery is truly appreciated.

This was the worst battery I ever used used in my life it ruined my business for two years. Had I known a battery company is willing to destroy some body else’s business to desperately make a dollar I would have never bought from them the first didn’t event last past 1 month and the second only 3 months and thinking that it was my starter or spark plugs, or distributor it was the raggedy battery under hood.
