Why did your car battery exploded with only 3000 miles on it?
Exploding Automotive BatteriesAuto batteries are usually of the Lead-Acid type and thus generate explosive gasses [Hydrogen (H2) and sometimes Hydrogen-sulphide (H2S?)]. These gasses accumulate in the head-space in the battery, and are emitted from the battery at the vent openings. Any kind of spark which occurs inside the battery or in the explosive gas envelope outside but near the battery, can ignite the explosive gasses thus causing an explosion. Even a spark/explosion starting outside the battery can ignite the gasses inside the battery and cause the battery itself to explode.In your case, with only 3K miles on the battery [for all practical purposes a brand new battery] I suspect that an internal flaw/fault due to a manufacturing defect or defective materials led to/caused the ignition.All of this is based on the assumption that you, or no one else, tampered with, misused, or abused the battery during that 3K miles.Without an exhaustive examination/investigation of the remains of the battery it is not possible to determine the actual fault/flaw causing the failure.
What does a charcoal filter do on a car?

Is a bulging car battery safe to operate?
The battery has internal problems and/or the vehicle is overcharging and is probably giving off explosive fumes. Don't do anything to cause a spark anywhere near the battery and take it to a repair shop asap for diagnoses.
