Picked up the 2019 from the dealer after the -non-maintenance checkup. They recommended replacing the 12v and stated it has a 0% SOH. Pretty amazing since the car unlocks, powers up, and drives. So I had it checked at 2 auto parts stores and both results showed it was indeed, failed. Looking at the battery, it has a 2019 sticker which is weird because that suggests it was replaced in 2019 for some reason; The battery doesn't appear as an OEM an is the same brand as O'Reilly's.
Most of the autoparts sites (including in-store) list a 140R which has recessed posts (below bottom) and I could not see a way for it to work with the wiring. Now a 2018 shows the 121R with terminals on top like a normal battery which appears like what I have currently.
Anyone with a 2019 have the same 212R or in fact have the 140R?
Thank you!
