Today, I went to return the old battery to get a $20.00 refund as they so proudly advertise. However, they were not amenable to that. They proceeded to tell me I didnt buy it there and that they had no record. Well, I bought it there and told them to look it up again. Thats when the big portly man came out and belittled me. Told me to leave, that there was no record that they had looked it up 3 times already. I had to stand my ground and tell them to keep looking, I gave them the exact date and they found it finally. That particular store is run by some very unprofessional and incompetent people. Im thinking of calling corporate because they obviously dont care about the business. Beware, and know to bring your receipt. They do not like to pay out the return of the core, so be vigilant. read more

My interstate battery exploded like a bomb in the middle of the night. Damaged parts of my RV and soaked the entire engine compartment with acid I am an older, struggling military veteran. The explosion woke me up in the middle of the night and gave me flashbacks to my military service. The company won't repair the parts of my RV that I live in. I told them I would be satisfied if they just replaced the three batteries in my RV, but they declined. Is there a lawyer who would like to represent me in this case pro bono? I don't understand why their customer service representative and Claims representative wouldn't just buy me three new batteries rather than forcing me to go to court. DO NOT BUY INTERSTATE BATTERIES! read more

I purchased a battery today for my BMW, and was helped by outstanding employee by the name of Dwayne. I had no clue about what kind battery I needed, and Dwayne went to my car, looked at the battery I had, measure it and tell me exactly what I need. Without him I would definitely buy the wrong battery. I cannot appraise enough is great customer service and personality. Great job overall I am a happy customer, read more

Went looking for a trickle charger for my ride. Was recommended here by family and made a call to see what the protocol is during the Rona. They have a small tent outdoors with store reps there asking what you're looking for. Upon arriving I was given 5 different choices to choose from ranging from cheapest to most expensive. I asked which charger they would recommend and they pointed to the second most expensive charger and gave their reasoning why that one was a good brand. I know at times if you go with a cheap option it can give you the results you're not looking for. Along with that, the store gave a 1 year warranty for it on top of the 3 year warranty that the product already comes with. Place seems like an efficient operation and is a good choice with anything in regards to your car battery. read more

Abrupt jerk directed me around to unmarked customer door. Stood around in lobby with three other customers for 10 minutes until manager came out from back room. After telling him what I needed, he gave me a single quote that was absolutely outrageous. No attempt to offer the batteries listed on their web site with varying capabilities and prices. Cold and indifferent. This store previously offered great assistance and very professional service. Won't be back. En route to Costco right now. read more

The good news is that Interstate All Battery Center carries BMW batteries so that I don't have to give up my first born or arm and a leg to the BMW dealership, the bad news is that they do not install BMW batteries...#fail. I purchased my battery, checked in like a good yelper should do and see that they offer a discount with a check in, however what their "fine" print doesn't tell you but rather I had to hear it from an employee is that you don't get your discount upon the first purchase but rather your second and you have to buy something that is $29.00 or more...grrr! They also mention that they will refund you for $16.00 recycling fee when you bring your old battery back. Unfortunately when I went back on a (Saturday) no less the entire store was closed due to some sort of all company meeting...really on a Saturday? *sigh* Note: They will test your old battery to ensure that you actually do need a new one, however the employee who helped me couldn't find my battery...#fail LOL um...hello it's located in the trunk...far right...duh! lol read more

12V auxillary battery for my hybrid that was 7years old was giving me trouble. Costco didn't carry it and this location had it available. With $15 discount it came out to be the best price compared all other stores. Plus this battery comes with a 6 years performance warranty. Install charge was $20. Walter helped me with purchase and install . He provided excellect service. read more

They really are not customer service friendly I have called like 4 times waiting for the sales manager to be back from lunch to see if they are gonna approve my warranty or they are gonna claim I caused the battery to fail. They really don't care about nothing I dropped my battery off 2 days ago they said we need to try and charge it I said cool they gave me a receipt and gave them 2 days to call me with the results and that didn't happen I called on the 3rd day and the gentleman put me on hold and then hung up I called back spoke with someone else they told me the battery failed and it only being 1.5 years old I know it's still under warranty but he needs to check with the sales manager who is at lunch. I said fine he said I'll call you back here it is going on 3hrs later no phone call so I call them and this time it goes to the recording and hangs up and they are closing soon so wtf people I just want a battery that works read more

Another great customer service experience. We all experienced incorrect credit card charges before, but this was the first time a Retailer was proactive and called me to inform me that they accidentally double charged my credit card and apologized for the mistake. I was fully refunded. GREAT customer service and a HUGE kudos to Valerie in Finance and Jeremy, the store Manager. Definitely recommending Interstate to all my friends and colleagues. read more

Brought my batteries for load test and it turned out that my 2020 batteries were bad. So I replaced them at a cost of about $650 and I figured that I would take the load test info that they were going to email to me and forward it to my rv manufacturer and get reimbursed. Will they have been telling me for 2 weeks now that their internet is down. So I guess I am out $650. Great product but bad customer service and this was the manager that did this. Please people find another location to purchase your batteries read more

I needed to replace my dying battery for rav4 2015. The guy named Jeremy help me out to choose the right one. He gave me the best deal that won't hurt your wallet. About 106$ out the door that includes parts and labor with yelp discounts. Definitely, this is the one stop shop for me when I'll need to replace my battery again in the near future. Excellent customer service. Recommended. read more

I needed to immediately replace the battery in my home's alarm system, which required a 12 volt, 7 amp battery. I showed up, told Caleb what I needed, and ten minutes later I was out the door with the appropriate replacement battery. It is rare when you get what you need with speed, service and friendliness. I encourage anyone who needs a battery for your car, RV or home alarm system to visit this location! read more

Walter is awesome! Knowledgeable and replaced my car battery quickly. Will definitely come back.

Called ahead of time to see if they had a battery in stock that would fit my vehicle. They did and I asked if they could install it that day if I came in. The person I spoke with said as long as I arrive by 4pm no problem. It was raining pretty hard so I asked if weather would be an issue. Again, no problem, as he said they do the install in a covered space. Great, I tell him I am on my way and will reach there before 4. I left as soon as I got off the phone, arrived at 3:56, and the person behind the counter proceeds to tell me I needed to come by 3:45 and they don't do installs when it's raining. Then they say I can buy the battery from them and get it installed elsewhere if I wanted. Um, no thank you. I called ahead of time so I didn't need to waste an hour driving there and back for no reason. Definitely not coming back here again. Went to O'Reilly Auto Parts instead and was in and out within 20 minutes. They also didn't charge an installation fee. read more

I have had continuous professional service from Interstate!!!! Jesus, Thank you for always taking care of Global Power Group!!! You rock!!!

Awesome customer service. Quick, painless, and affordable. How many times have you heard these words describe an automotive establishment? Well at Interstate Batteries over on Cabot, this dream is a REALITY. My car battery died (for good) on my 2013 GTI and from the time I called and spoke to Oscar to the time I was driving away with a new healthy battery I was served phenomenally. Caleb helped me with my replacement and had an amazing attitude about the entire process. Hopefully I don't need to get another battery soon (the warranty covers 5 years) but if I do I would DEFINITELY come to this spot and ask for Caleb to assist me. read more

Great place. Got in, they have a lower price than 3 other places that I had called. Was out of there with a new battery installed in 30 minutes. read more

I was in need of 6-volt motorcycle battery and called for help. Proceeded to be told not in stock, but I could pay and order it. Was warned that there could be 3-6 month wait with NO REFUNDS. Do better Interstate! read more

Worst customer service ever! Eddie help me literally was no help. How are you going to charge to test if your own product is good? I was a big fan of interstate battery recommend to friends in the past. After this experience I will never recommend this product again!!! Did not honor to exchange the battery for a new one like their policy states under warranty! When the battery was tested by two other places was told it was bad. read more

Walter was perfect. Customer service six stars. Polite calm answered all my questions. There needs to be more people in the world like him. Installation was done quickly and efficient. Definitely will use this center again. read more

These guys do a great job. They have been my go to battery supplier for 5 years now. They always keep my stock full and up to date. Hector comes by regularly to see if we need anything. RW also does a great job keeping our supplies stocked up. read more

Very pleased with this place. Usually go to Walmart Auto shop to get new batteries, but they are closed due to the pandemic. Nice, clean shop and everyone friendly, efficient, and helpful, starting with Walter on the initial phone call (except he said my Yelp review would get me $15 off my bill, but it was only $10). Caesar said it would only take 5 mins to put in the new battery, but one clamp was stuck, so he worked on it 20 mins to cut it off and fix it, all in the initial price estimate. He was very efficient, courteous, and kept me up-to-date on what was happening. I am editing my review after having gotten the new battery, so I am not getting any further discounts, I just wanted to share my positive experience. read more

Excellent customer service...Walter replaced my battery quickly and expertly...One if the best places I've been to in San Diego for my car.

Excellent customer service. Ask for Oscar as he was very knowledgeable and accommodating to our needs. No one enjoys replacing their car battery but the overall experience was great. read more

I needed a battery for my vehicle and Hector was able to get me exactly what I needed. He did a great job making sure it was the right battery for my vehicle. I highly recommend these guys!!!

My wife had a remote controlled fart machine she use to play tricks on her fellow employees and it has not been used for 10 years. Randito took out the old batteries out of the remote and out of the machine and rubbed off the gunk the old batteries left behind and got this machine tuned like a fine Stradavarius. It does wet farts down to dry popcorn farts! Thanks guys, as usual you went above and beyond my expectations! Chuck Cadena. read more
