Battery failed and was removed by owner and placed in back of owners Suburban to Transport for exchange for new battery at wal-mart. Apparently the battery leaked during Transport and was not detected. Upon removing battery to bring into store, owner was burned with battery acid. Owner was treated by flusing with water. Vehicle was damaged due to acid. Carpet in back of vehicle was dissolved, underflooring began to rust, and other personal belongings such as a baby blanket were dissolved by the acid.
