Glendora Battery Service

Glendora Battery Service

Like the batteries in your TV’s remote, your car’s battery has a limited lifespan. When the battery gets weak or dies, it can’t produce electricity to start the vehicle. Don’t wait for the battery to die before replacing it. Bring your car in for our Glendora battery service. We’ll inspect the battery and replace it with a new one if necessary.

Most car batteries have a three- to five-year lifespan. Replacing the battery every three years will help ensure it doesn’t die while you’re on the road. Learn to recognize the signs of a faulty battery, especially if you live in a climate with sweltering summers or frigid winters. Some symptoms that indicate it’s time to replace the battery include:

• The engine starts slowly.
• The battery indicator light comes on.
• The battery fluid is leaking.
• The battery’s case looks bloated or damaged.

The weather will affect your vehicle’s battery life. The water inside the battery can evaporate in hot weather. This will result in lower performance, and it may become difficult to start the car. When the water in the battery evaporates, it can lead to corrosion, the leading cause of leaky and dead car batteries. During a battery inspection, we’ll check for corrosion and leaks, inspect the battery case and cables, and make sure the battery is fully charged.

Cold weather is another enemy of car batteries. The colder the weather, the harder the battery must work to provide the energy to start the car. Cold weather also causes the engine oil to thicken, putting even more strain on the battery.

In the Glendora area, we experience hot summers, so you may need to replace your car’s battery more often than once every three years. At the CardinaleWay Hyundai - Glendora Service Center, you’ll find several service specials on our website.
