    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    I purchased a lithium battery for a *** unit from APC by Schneider Electric via Amazon's APC store in May 2021 (product link: ********************************************). The battery failed soon after. APC replaced it under warranty in August 2021.The replacement failed again in August 2023. I contacted Schneider Electric on 09/01/2023. Despite the product's advertised three-year warranty on the Amazon page (PDF attached), Schneider Electric now claims the warranty is only two years and has refused a replacement.I chose APC over third-party batteries and paid premium believing in their product quality and customer service. This situation undermines that trust. I seek the BBB's intervention to ensure Schneider Electric honors its stated warranty.Thank you for your assistance.

    I purchased an APC *** battery backup. We had a power surge which damaged our ******* modem, Eero mesh gateway router and video recording device. I filed a claim in July of 2022. I did get a response in Sept 2022 that was a release of settlement claim for $455.75. I signed the form but have never received the money.
