MY ORIGINAL BATTERY IN MY 2001 TAHOE LEAKED AND DIED AFTER TWO YEARS. I WAS INFORMED TODAY, BY MY GM DEALER (NORTH STATE CHEVY) THE LEAK DESTROYED MY WINDSHIELD WASHER MOTORS( FRONT WASHER AND REAR WASHER) AND THE CONNECTING HOSES. IT COST ME OVER $200 TO GET REPAIRED. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY ORIGINAL BATTERY IN MY 1999 YUKON AFTER JUST TWO YEARS.
