Default Battery corrosion
Not sure if others are seeing this, but my POS battery terminal keeps corroding. I never have this problem with my 2 Hondas or my old RX7. My truck is 5.4 2005. I've read that the 2 types of metals can cause this, but it keeps coming back every few months. I always use lots of dialectic grease and the red battery spray. Thanks

Could be a small leak or some seepage at the terminal(s).

That's what happened to my original battery. I couldn't see any small cracks, but will take a closer look, thanks.
