When to Replace Your Car Battery

Typically, you will need a car battery replacement service every four to five years. However, factors such as climate, location, and your personal driving habits can have an effect on how often you’ll need to replace your car battery. Knowing how often to replace your car battery will ensure that you don’t get stuck somewhere unable to start your vehicle, but you should be aware of the following warning signs may indicate that you need a new battery:

  • Slow cranking or sluggish start
  • Low fluid levels in the battery
  • Fluid leaking from the battery
  • A swelling or bloated battery case
  • The “Check Battery” light comes on

How to Lengthen Your Car Battery’s Life

While the car battery replacement cost is relatively affordable in and around Cresskill, you’ll want to make sure to take good care of your car battery in order to get the most out of your investment. The battery in your vehicle won’t last forever, but there are a few things you can do to help extend the life of your car battery. Consider the following: 

  • Avoid using the headlights or any in-vehicle electronics when the engine is off.
  • Limit the number of short trips you make. 
  • Make sure the battery is always tightly fastened in its compartment. 
  • Remove any corrosion that builds up on the outside of the battery. 
  • Park in the shade to avoid battery overheating. 
  • Check the voltage (should be around 12.7 volts or above) monthly. 
  • Avoid letting your car sit undriven for long periods of time.
