How long should a car battery last?
A car battery typically lasts between 3 and 5 years. However, many factors can affect the lifespan of a car battery, such as climate, driving habits, and maintenance.
How do I properly maintain my car battery to prolong its life?
Proper maintenance of your car battery can help prolong its lifespan. Here are some tips:
Keep your battery clean: Clean the battery terminals and connections regularly to prevent corrosion buildup that can weaken the battery's power.
Avoid draining the battery: Avoid leaving your car's lights or other electrical components on for extended periods while the engine is off, as this can quickly drain the battery.
Drive your car regularly: Take your car for regular drives to keep the battery charged. If you don't drive often, consider investing in a battery tender or maintainer to keep the battery charged.
Store your car properly: If you're storing your car for an extended period, disconnect the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Alternatively, use a trickle charger to keep the battery charged while it's not in use.
Remember, each car battery is different, so it's essential to check your car owner's manual for specific maintenance guidelines. Regular maintenance can help extend your battery's life, but eventually, all car batteries will need to be replaced.
