I'm jaded since Arizona eats batteries, but depending on the "in-service" date of your vehicle, I wouldn't be overly surprised to see a battery failure in 3 to 4 years. I've been thinking about replacing the one in my 2020 Pro (44K miles, purchased in November 2019) pre-emptively to save the inevitable dead battery that I know is coming (probably on a nice 115 degree day this summer).
The initial battery in my last few vehicles (VW Golf R, Land Rover Disco Sport, Jeep Wrangler) all failed within 3 to 4 years.
In some cases batteries are warrantied for at least 3 years from the manufacturer. I know my Rover got a new battery for free after failure in less than 3 years. VW only warrantied for 2 years though which was ridiculous (factory battery failed in just over 2 years). Extended warranty typically will not cover it.
