GS Yuasa UK Omdömen 77

Purchased Yuasa YBX5096 12 volt via Amazon through Click Car Parts 8th January 2020. Five year guarantee . January 14th 2023 battery useless . Amazon takes NO RESPONSIBILTY ,No contact Click .

I bought a Heavy Duty battery which was delivered and fitted on 08 Jun 23. The battery was used regularly on my vehicle until 01 Aug 23 when it just lost power and was not able to start my vehicle.

I called my local mobile mechanic out to assist, and he confirmed the battery was totally flat with no sign of life.

I contacted Amazon who were not able to help but had me contact the sales team at bmstechnologies.

Long story short, absolute waste of time, they would not accept my battery back and instructed me to go to a Halford's or Vehicle electrics Factor to have the battery tested.

Having replaced the battery, I don't have the time or inclination to go humping a battery around Factors to confirm the battery is dead.

I will not ever use Yuasa battery as this is a disgrace that they will not have a return to them. I'm also highly critical that Amazon have fobbed me off when they were the supplier who I bought the battery from but would not take any responsibility for the sale.

Money and confidence lost, beware when dealing with Yuasa / bms technologies.co.uk

Completely useless. Utterly. Despite them charging a premium for their batteries I sent them 3 emails to the email address published on their website and then a message using the contact us form. Nothing, nothing, nothing whatsoever diddly squat

I put a 70ah Yuasa battery in my 1.9 TDI in March 2017. Great powerful starter. It's now end of October 2023 so 6-1/2 years later still working fine but starting to struggle on cold frosty mornings. That's over 6 years good service. Good battery in my experience and cheap I paid 65 pounds for it in 2017

Wrote a review in January about failed Yuasa battery and how garage changed it under warranty to another of same make and model. Surprise, surprise, this one has now also failed. Car was checked for battery drains and it is OK. £200 down the drain. Have now fitted a Varta and put it down to awful experience, as stuck at airport car park with dud battery.

Useless battery, works for a few weeks, and when you leave the car off for a week the battery dies.

4 battery's premature failure all within a year, on 4 separate vehicles. Warranty not honoured on any of them.
Avoid. Definitely not trade rated and very disappointed customers.

Quando si dice la mercificazione dei feedback, convinto dagli innumerevoli feedback positivi sparsi in ogni dove, ho acquistato questa batteria YTX12 BS-12V/10AH per il mio scooter a Luglio del 2021, Lo scooter l'ho usato solo 6 mesi l'anno e durante gli altri mesi con alimentatore in funzione mantenimento a mesi alterni ho caricat la batteria e nonostante usi poco i fanali ed abbia fatto pochissimi km, in 24 mesi precisi è quasi morta, non tiene la carica. La sua originale è durata 5 anni, la Exide 5 anni, questa 2, peccato che costa più delle altre. Yuasa NON è un marchio, ma un truffa ben sponsorizzata.

Battery failed prematurely 2 months past warranty. Retailer referred me to Yuasa. Previous Banner battery lasted 12 years. Yuasa NOT INTERESTED. They state it should have lasted longer but then say too many external factors can cause battery failure so say they are not responsible go back to retailer . No change in cars use or conditions when garaged. DO NOT BUY - BUYER BEWARE

Had the 3000 series car battery swapped 4 in 3 year warranty period.
The last one is 2 month old and failed but now outside the warranty period so they won’t exchange.
I would expect any new item to be covered for at least a year but apparently not.
Never again!

Bought in Halfords, still working after 6 years.

I bought a Yuasa 5000 battery from Halfords, with a 5-year guarantee, in December 2021. It failed in November 2022, i.e. after 11 months. Halfords tested the battery (by connecting a Yuasa testing machine to the battery terminals) - the machine said "not covered by the warranty". I argued, but decided not to go to court, and then I made two mistakes; I got a new alternator installed (thinking that it must be the alternator's fault), and I got Halfords to fit a new battery without specifying which make. They fitted another Yuasa 5000. This one failed on 1st January 2023, i.e. after after less than 2 months! Never, ever buy one of these. Look at all the reviews.

I bought a Yuasa battery for my car from Amazon in August 2020, although it worked great initially after 18 months it started to lose power and not hold a charge above 10.5v, which is an indication of a dead cell. I contacted Amazon for a replacement or refund but they directed me to go to the manufacturer. Contacting the manufacturer they informed me that it was not them but the seller, and quoting various acts. The battery has got a 5 year manufacturers warranty, a warranty which they refuse to honor rendering it useless. Don't trust this firm as they won't back you. I intend taking the matter up with the authorities and create a bit of a shame for them.

I went over to a YUASA battery because the old one although only after one year, well , it would not hold its charge. The new YuasA seems so much better and is covered by a good waranty . I have no idea why Royal Enfield ut such a bad battery make. I read of three owners who had the same (poor battery ), all faded and useless.. I have always relied on Yuasa make on all my bikes since 1968, never had the tiniest problem. I use the gel form these days. Superb Make. and only a couple of pounds more that the other (evil form with acid and water. ) These can splash in an emergency stop or topple etc. Gel batteries are far more reliable.

Lee Allen and the team behind make Yuasa work and if it works for us I think it would work for everyone.

Account managers have so much knowledge and Lee is a pedigree account manager amongst a wide varied talent field in the UK battery market.

If you know him and need a battery - you are sorted. Full stop.

Without question he is the best

Poor had two within 18 months on my VW T5 both had cell breakdown, now I’ve had a full refund and fitted top spec Exide, I’ll stick with what I know in future.

Purchased 2 of these batteries for my husbands mobility scooter in January 2022 at a cost of over £200 they lasted less than 6 months. Took to a mobility repair shop who gave a report 1 battery running at 18% the other at 94% however even though we sent a report to the company they were purchased from, this graphic report is not the right type the company are the most abusive rude and threatening people I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. Our charger has been tested and is working perfectly. I will not be buying or recommending these batteries to anyone. Just spent another £260 on Mrs batteries.

It's the worst deep cycle battery I've ever purchased ( tree of them 110ah .
12 volt). traveling 20 years no problem these batteries only lasted just on 3 years I'm going back to the old brand,
When I made inquiries, not much effort was shown.
(On average the batteries I have use same Amp hours 5 to 6 years .)

I have had a Yuasa battery for less than two years and the car has only been used twice in that period, I dismantles the battery when not in use. The battery does not hold a charge but when I went back to them, they did not want to know. Totally unhelpful, would never buy a battery from them again.

They should be more honest about the guarantee on the battery.

Like many of the posters it lasted about 3 and 1/2 years. I have a Yuasa 12v 12a (YUASA NP12-12) in an UPS that is starting to bulge and the UPS cuts out on larger loads of 100+w but not on smaller loads of less than 60w.

It worked quite well over the two years considering the frequent power cuts and the many short second trips that I noticed during the day. I got the UPS which was second hand and there was date code on the battery. The seller confirmed that this was a replacement battery that he got in 2019.

I know it can be a wear and tear factor as well as the heat in the casing as I noticed it gets very warm in the compartment.

Now if this battery was subjected to lower temperatures within the casing, rare power cuts/trips and used for low voltage stuff then I would give it a 2 star but in this case I think this particular one has performed quite well given the conditions and the power cuts.
