Hi, I recently purchased a new AC DELCO battery and the warranty code on it says P 027. I believe this means it was manufactured in february 2007. How can this be (its december 2006 now).
See the third question in the link below
http://www.acdelco.com/parts/battery/battery-warranty.jsp
It says "For example, P 094N means the battery was made in September 2004 in the New Brunswick factory."
Anyone have an idea why there's a future mfg date ?

Here's your answer. The 02 refers to the MONTH of manufacture. the last digit,7, refers to the year it was supposed to be sold in. It looks like(and it has happened before) that you got a battery that was shipped out before the date it was supposed to be. Big batteries are supposed to sit and "cool off" before shipping to prevent unwanted rupture from over-excited power cells fresh from charging. No worries though. The letter after the numbers is where the battery was made. I'm not sure about the letter before the numbers though, sorry!

It happens. That batch of batteries was due to be released in February. Wouldn't you be mad if you bought one in February of 07 that was dated made in July of 06? It somehow slipped out of sequence and made it to the retail store. Consider yourself lucky, you have several months of free coverage now. You could have it go dead in February and get a new one at absolutely no cost.
