This bulletin is being issued to provide additional information concerning the specification label on OEM batteries. On the upper right corner of the label is a replacement model number that has a reference to the battery warranty if sold in the aftermarket. Sample label content shown below with replacement model number as 100-6YR. This number has been known to cause some confusion in the field as customers think that they have a longer warranty on the battery than the standard 3 year/36,000 mile (60,000 km) or 4 year/50,000 mile (80,000 km) vehicle warranty.

ACDelco® established this model number as part of their cataloging system and it is provided only for replacement information. The warranty code (6YR) only applies to retail sales. The battery warranty is the same as the vehicle warranty.

If a battery is replaced during the vehicles warranty period, instruct the customer that the new battery will continue to be covered for the remainder of the vehicle warranty or 12 months/12,000 miles (in Canada, 3 months/6,500 km), whichever is longer.
