When to Replace Your Car Battery

Now that you understand the average range for car battery replacement cost, do you want to know when to replace a car battery? How often to replace a car battery depends on several factors, such as the conditions you drive in, location, and your Raleigh driving habits. These are some warning signs that could indicate it’s time to get car battery replacement service.

  • The “Check Battery” light keeps coming on, or it stays on continually
  • A swelling or bloated battery casing
  • Fluid is leaking from your car battery
  • Low fluid levels in the battery
  • Slow turn-over or a sluggish start
  • You see corrosion on the battery or the battery terminals

If you experience any of these issues, schedule a service appointment as soon as possible to have our expert technicians inspect your vehicle. We’ll let you know if you need car battery replacement service or if there’s something else going on.

Car Battery Maintenance Tips

If corrosion is building up on your car battery, you’ll want to stay ahead of it. When build-up begins, it’s time to clean your car battery so it doesn’t have a chance to worsen and cause battery problems. These are the steps on how to clean your car’s battery:

  • Open your hood and locate the battery
  • Carefully remove the battery cables
  • Clean the cables with baking soda, water, and a medium wire brush
  • Reconnect the battery cables in the proper order
  • Make sure you put the cover back on

Hendrick Chevrolet Southpoint highly recommends that you wear gloves and glasses for safety when working with your car battery. If you’re not comfortable cleaning your vehicle’s battery, you can schedule the service at Hendrick Chevrolet Southpoint, online or over the phone at (984) 666-9878.
