Battery Service and Replacement

When Does My Car's Battery Need Service or Replacing?

The battery in your vehicle is essential. Besides helping keep your lights and technological features running, it also assists with the startup of your car, truck, SUV, or van. Over time, the battery will begin to lose its charge, especially when it's placed in extreme temperature conditions. Fortunately, your vehicle will begin to show warning signs when it's time to have your vehicle's battery replaced.

• Dimming Lights - Do your car's lights seem to be less bright? If so, this could be a sign that your car's battery is beginning to lose its charge. We recommend testing the battery to discover if it's dying or not.
 
• Hard Starts - Does it take a while for your vehicle to start, especially in the morning? This could be because the battery is beginning to fade. You'll want to test it and maybe replace it if it continues.
 
• No Starts - Have you had to jumpstart your car, truck, SUV, or van? Whether it's because someone left a door open and drained the battery or your car's battery has finally lost its charge completely, you'll want to have it replaced before too long. In some cases, the battery may be fully dead and will need to be replaced before you can use your car again.
