  • Labor $280

Not to mention the hours spent trying to fix it myself.

The O'Reilly "Super Start" battery 94RPLT that "fits" my '18 Macan caused error messages- can't initialize steering angle sensor.

Pretty sure that's what brought down those Boeing 737-Max jets. You were lucky you weren't killed.


Edit: I bought a pair of Walmart crap batteries for my truck, less than a year later I started having weird electrical problems, take the batteries back to Walmart.....hey, they're just fine they say. Finally get frustrated with the electrical issues, take the truck to the Dodge house....$ 700 later they say, your batteries were bad. They put in two fresh Mopar batteries, and that was the fix. I was.....mad.
