So first of all, I used to get my batteries here for my truck and family cars, but now I'm not. I bought a battery 3 years ago. I've been having issues with my truck and going to different mechanics. They told me that the battery is failing. So I called this place because it was under warranty and drove there too. The warranty was over in July 2025. They checked the battery but only the voltage, and they said it was good. Now it's September, and the battery isn't working no more. I needed to get a new battery somewhere else and pay around $350. Also, when I took it in June, the warranty sticker was on there. When I was removing the battery to get new one. I notice that the warranty sticker was removed. I recommend not going here
This place is great! A little confusing to find the entrance (it's the driveway on the left.) but you'll forget about that when you get your dead battery removed and a low cost brand new battery installed in minutes! Very fast and friendly service; I would recommend this place to anyone who needs a new battery on the double!
This place is awesome!! Came in for a new battery and they switched it out and we were on our way in less than 10 minutes. Very nice and the price was great too!
Spoke with Don. Had my battery group 48 for my 3500HD. Will admit space is tight for a big crew cab, but manageable.. By the time I went to pay the battery was already installed. I kid you not 10 minutes in and out... Very knowledgeable and no bs.. prices are very fair. I highly recommend them. They also sell batteries for motorcycles...
I was recommended by my tow truck driver to come to this place I gave him a call and I'm on my way over to get a new battery. The guy on the phone sounded awesome his name was Don.
Great experience at Battery Mart!🤩
They had the exact battery I needed in stock, and I was in and out in about 10 minutes. Their prices were also much cheaper than other auto parts stores in the area. Highly recommend it to anyone needing a new battery!
Pros: Quick service, competitive prices
I was new to the Costa mesa are and didn't know who to trust. I found this place on Google and called. Went down, got a battery for $40 asked him the warranty and he said, just call us if therebis a problem...we got you. Greatvshop..luv thus place.
Funny story about how I discovered this place. I was on the phone with Autozone and he had me on speaker as he was asking me questions about my truck and what type of battery I was looking for. When all of a sudden a fellow customer who overheard my conversation with rep. Says, “you wanna go to battery mart in Costa Mesa bro, save yourself a ton of money”. I was like who was that , rep says it’s just a guy trying to help you. So I hung up the phone and headed their way after looking them up. I grew up in Costa Mesa so I knew exactly where they were. Don and his guys helped me out. Got me In and out in under 10 mins. If you need a battery. Go there. You will thank me and anyone else who mentioned them to you later. I was able to save over $100 for a battery that does the exact same job as the $325 dollar one Auto zone was trying to sell me. Installed. I’m glad I found them. Also, they have been there for 40+ years. So I think they know what they are doing 😎😎😎
Excellent and affordable small business to get your battery replaced at. My car is running great and I only paid $89.95. Plus, I was in and out within 15 minutes!
Buyer beware.
I purchased a "Battery Mart" battery for my 2015 Ford Transit Connect Titanium. My original battery was over 4 years old, and after leaving the car parked for 5 day, it was turning over very slowly.
I paid $99 for replacement battery and another $100 for the installation - so about $209 with tax. I'm a retiree and drive part time for UBER 3-4 mornings a week. The Battery Mart battery never fully felt charged, and I had to call AAA to jump-start me before I purchased a portable jumper battery(AAA only gives you a limited amount of jumps). I called Don(the owner of Battery Mart less than a week after buying his battery. He claimed his battery eas fine, even though I had my mechanic check my car and test the battery(load test, etc.). After a few more days of my car barely starting and days of my car's computer wigging out, I finally told him I'd happily pay for the more expensive, INTERSTATE battery he is a dealer for. I agreed to pay the additional $69 - $15 of wcich were for a "core" trade in, even though I had originally given him my old battery! I also waited for the Interstate battery to be switched out, which took no more than 20 minutes - which means his original charge of $100 to switch out my battery amounted to being charged about $300 an hour for that installation.
And the icing on the cake - the original replacement battery was a basic, sealed, no maintenance battery. The replacement INTERSTATE battery was an old school lead/acid type battery that you gave to keep checking the water levels on. Who knew these were even manufactured anymore?
So that's my experience with Battery Mart in Costa Mesa, and that's why I say, "BUYER BEWARE".
Just left there, total process was less than 5 mins. Again, let me repeat that reviews say "it takes 5 mins" it was faster and easier than what I expected. Tipped the tech 10 bucks for his professionalism. Total cost was like 120, way better than the 200 quotes I got.
fast and friendly for sure. I came in not even knowing what I needed and I was given clear direction and options to which batteries would be best for me. you can't beat the prices or the honesty found at this place.. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
Super easy and fast. I was quoted over 250$ from the dealership and from pep boys . I paid only 109$. They were nice. I just simply stayed in my car while they changed the battery.

I can't remember the last time I bought a battery, but this place made it fast, easy and priced right!! They took out my old one and put in the new one!! Seems to be family owned and small town hospitality you rarely see around here!!
Batteries and service used to be good. But, the past 3 batteries I have purchased have been no good and do not hold a charge. When I bring it back they say my vehicle has a electrical short. I finally bought a different battery from Pep Boys and zero issues! How ironic! Unfortunately I will never use battery mart anymore after 15 years.
Awesome place! Friendly with great advice and help.
Any type battery you are looking for plus several price ranges. From small motorcycle to big 8Ds....chassis Batts for your motor home.
Both my father and I have been getting our batteries here for at least the last 25 years. Very friendly and knowledgeable service, good product, fair price and extremely quick installation. In and out in about 10 minutes. I can't say enough good things about this place!!
NO INTEGRITY AT BATTERY MART. I needed my battery to be replaced under the Battery Mart prorated warranty. I took my car in and tge elderly condescending "gentleman" refused to replace it saying there was a different problem the battery was not bad, without even looking at the battery. To be sure, I took my car to another shop and was told again the battery was bad. I went to Battery Mart for the second time and once again they refused to replace it. With no other choice I took it to another shop that did a 3rd diagnostic on the electrical system and once again the battery was bad, they replaced the battery. This if course cost much more than the prorate would have been, but Battery Mart is unethical. Do not trust this shop if you ever want to have them honor their warranty.
Amazing service and friendly staff! Tyler did a great job diagnosing the problem, gave me a fabulous price and did it so fast that I was in and out in less than 10 min. They gained a happy customer for life 😊
Tyler was the one that answered my phone call and helped me out in a pinch.
My motorcycle battery had died just that afternoon and they were able to locate a battery for my bike and give me a killer deal on the price at that! Not even an hour had passed between the time I called Battery Mart from my house and had the battery installed in my motorcycle.
This is the pinnacle of great customer service!
If you know you need a new battery, this is what you should expect: Drive up. Open hood. He tells you how much with a glance. Agree. Pay during install. Gone. Less than 15 minutes. $99 for a new battery for 2003 Highlander. In the past I've also purchased motorcycle batteries and car batteries as well. All perform very well with no noticeable deterioration in performance in over two years.
Took my mom in to have her battery changed. We were in and out in minutes with friendly service. Could have gone to someplace like Sears or Pep Boys. So happy to support a local business and we likely saved time and money by doing so as well.
This guy has been here for years. He is a little rough around the edges but always been fair and kind. The young guy that wks for him goes above and beyind to please.
I think this business is honest and has great prices on batteries. They even test, clean & charge and install @ no additional cost!!
I was looking for a battery for my Kia Optima with a weird size. Every auto part store had it for around $115; Walmart was the cheapest at $99. I tried to buy it online, but their janky website would not process my PayPal. I'm glad it didn't go through. I searched Google maps for car batteries and this place came up. It looks like a house with two garages and a long backyard. The garages are filled with batteries. I was in and out in 2 minutes and bought the battery for $89. I don't know how long this battery will last; I'll update my review if necessary.
I tried this because my girlfriend needed a battery, they had her size and the guy helping us was really nice, it felt like the kind of service you'd get in an old fashion auto parts store. I felt like i could send my grandfather here without being upset. I got what i needed and was on my way.
Now that my battery is starting to fail i feel I'll go here again to get that battery replaced
