I did two warranty returns this year with them.  Both Optima
batteries, both times they asked me to leave the batteries over night
where they put them on a charger.  Both times they found issues and
gave me a dollars off a new battery of the same time from the pro-rated
warranty.

Ultimas are not what they are cracked up to be, but
can't complain at how Walmart treated me.

For what it is worth,
I could have bought three of their regular ones for the price of the
Optima
