Great! Now I broke my tow eye cover

That's not how lead-acid batteries work. Depending on climate average lifetime for a 12V battery is 4-6 years. Plenty fail prior to that, not many last more than that. They are a far less durable technology than the traction battery in the Tesla. If you keep your car 5 years there is a pretty good chance you'll need to do something on it (outside warranty, especially if you hit 50K mi before your 4 years are up).

P.S. "Ditto" without clear point of reference (in the medium of this board usually handled via a Quote ) to help figure out exactly what you're referring to sucks.

Lol. It was the post directly above. That’s the definition of ditto, as I already mentioned.

And it should also have been obvious that I meant YOU personally should not have to remove the battery and be charging it. I know full well lead-acid batteries need to be charged/replaced.as I’ve been dealing with them in cars and boats for decades.

'Round these parts we use Quotes for clarity! Don't use them don't be surprised that you need to clarify.

"No owner should be (or need to, but that’s another issue!) removing the 12 V battery." - you, 1 post back

What is this, some sort of "no owner by me has any enough know-how to service a 12V battery" arrogance? Or just you shifting the rhetorical sands?
