Car Battery Replacement Info
The average car battery lasts for about three years, but external factors-like your specific driving habits and the environment-can cause its lifespan to differ.
Extended exposure to extreme heat, for example, is one factor that may lead to premature battery wear.
There are a few early warning signs that you can look out for in your travels. If you notice any of the following, schedule service for your car battery as soon as possible:
- Low battery-fluid level
- Swollen or bloated battery case
- Rotten egg smell around the battery
You should also listen for a slow crank when you start the engine. If it sounds weary, your battery may be dying.
The Charging System warning light usually doesn't signify an immediate battery issue.
A failure in the charging system can, however, can lead to battery failure, so it's best to get it inspected by a professional.
