Two batteries, both bought at the same time. One can't turn the motor and the other can. Mechanic replace one 'bad' battery and charged $150. Since the battery was fairly new I ask for the old battery and return the battery to Sam's. They tested the battery and replace the battery.
Here is the neat part. I tried to return the new battery to the mechanic. The mechanic says 'Why don't you save the battery in case the other battery failed'. He wont take back the battery. Sam's battery was $75 if I purchased. Never went back to that mechanic.
