[QUOTE="browntruckmechanic, post: 972946, member: 7010"] This is not a new policy. Been in effect for at least 10yrs. The thought behind it is that the unknown variables that could have caused the battery to be dead... Ie does battery have a bad cell, is there a draw on the battery that is greater than 30miliamps, and if so would the car have time to fully charge the batteries on route taking in consideration how many stops and starts are done during the day. Is the alternator weak sure it may produce 12 volts but only 10 amps, batteries would never charge. Much safer for all involved to change batteries and write up car at end of day. And let the rude comments begin.. [/QUOTE]
