84 month wet battery purchased 5/1/14 from Goodyear. Dies 6/23/18, almost 50 months later. How much is the pro rata adjustment? ---

Why ask here, that is to be determined by Goodyear . I seriously doubt there is any and if there is it will be a very low amount. ---

I wouldn’t be so sure of that Just a few weeks ago, my 4 year old Kirkland Signature pro-rated battery needed to be replaced I was in the 50% pro-rated period, so I only paid 1/2 price for a new battery It wouldn’t surprise me if OP also is in the 50% pro-rated period This can be determined by looking at the label Costco didn’t ask for my receipt, because my battery purchase from 4 years prior was in their records. ---

I had a similar experience with Costco, and based on that transaction I’m a dedicated buyer of batteries from Costco. No BS, no picky paperwork. They had all the data and I was in and out while we managed to spend another $200 in the store. A new battery and a lifetime supply of all sorts of stuff.
