Today\u2019s vehicles have more electrical components and do-dads than ever\nbefore. This really strains your electrical system, making it hard for\nthe battery to keep up. Think about it: electric seats, seat heaters, power\nlocks, windows and sunroofs. And then we have all the power outlets for\nour cell phones, computers, and DVD players. We also have navigation systems\nand powerful stereos. Plus, there are all the engine and transmission\ncomputers, traction control, stability control, anti-lock brakes, sensors and\non and on. Even the security system is running off the battery while the car is\nturned off. And of course, summer heat can take a real toll on battery\nlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately, battery technology has given us resilient batteries that are\nable to meet these strenuous requirements. But the fact is; batteries\njust wear out over time. Eventually, every battery gets to the point\nwhere it cannot hold enough of a charge to start your car. Sometimes batteries\nneed to be replaced because they have developed a leak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Replacement batteries come in all shapes and sizes. Some cars have\nlimited space that requires a specially shaped battery to fit. Larger\nengines require more powerful batteries to get them started. If you live\nin a cold climate you will need a more powerful battery because engines are\nharder to start when it is cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Batteries come in \u201cgood\u201d, \u201cbetter\u201d and \u201cbest\u201d grades. More expensive\nbatteries may have a longer warranty and are guaranteed to last longer. \nAs with most things, paying a little more up-front saves money in the long\nrun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ask your service advisor to test your battery and advise you on how much life it has left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
