Did You Know: The older a car battery is, the more susceptible it is to extreme temperature changes.
Signs Your Car Battery Might Be Failing
It’s a common misconception that your car battery will always give clear warnings before failure. While older batteries might have offered hints like slow engine starts, many modern batteries function perfectly until they suddenly stop. That’s why recognizing the early signs of a weakening car battery is essential to avoid being caught off guard.
Here are key signs your car battery might need attention or replacement:
- Sluggish engine starts or clicking sounds when turning the ignition
- Dim headlights or slow electronic functions (e.g., power windows or locks)
- Corrosion or buildup around the battery terminals
- A battery older than 3-5 years
- Frequent jumpstarts needed to get your car running
If you notice any of these issues, it’s time to have your vehicle battery inspected by a professional.
