Why Professional Battery Maintenance Is So Important

Believe it or not, dramatic changes in outside temperature can negatively impact both the life and health of your auto's battery. Drained batteries aren't just the result of leaving the lights on or leaving a car door slightly ajar. Many automotive batteries lose a significant amount of their charge during winter when the outside temperatures plummet. Automotive batteries also suffer power losses on the hottest days of summer. Battery health tests give our team the chance to assess your battery's condition and remaining lifespan. This way, if this component needs changing out, we can replace it before it fails.

How Often Should You Have a Battery Health Test Performed?
