My 2019 Ram 1500 Big Horn 3.6L OEM Battery went 7 years before failure. When it failed, the vehicle made an angry clicking noise when start was selected. The battery showed 11.5v with a voltmeter. I put a charger on it and was able to bring the voltage up to 12.5v and then it would start OK but showed a nonspecific check engine light. I put in a new Wallymart Everstart Platinum H7 and cleared the fault and it's good to go. Writing mainly to let people know that the new battery also instantly fixed a "Start/Stop not Ready" message that has been popping up the last 6 months or so especially when the vehicle wasn't driven for 7-10 days.
