How to Know if You Need a New Battery

Updated: Jul 23, 2021


Do you need a new battery? When is the last time you replaced your vehicle's battery?

Some batteries have the month and year of purchase located on the top or side of them.

It's recommended if your battery is over 2 years old, it may be time to get a new one.

Symptoms of a failing battery:

  • Dim Headlights

  • Windows moving up/down is very slow

  • Needing a jump start

  • Slower blinking of turn signals

  • Slow or longer start

  • Symptoms seem to go back to normal when you accelerate

  • Corrosion on battery

  • Battery is warped, damaged or "bloated"

  • Low Voltage reading

If you need a new battery, replace it! Generally a battery replacement is simple. If you are unable to replace it on your own, contact your mechanic!
