Making sure that your car's engine has a top-notch power source requires several steps. First, our technicians will use a multimeter device to see if the battery provides a sufficient charge. This should read around 12.5 volts. If it does not, this is a sign that the battery may need replacing.

In addition to checking the battery's voltage, our technicians will also ensure that its connections to the engine are secure. They'll examine the terminals for signs of corrosion, too, since its presence can prevent the proper transmission of electricity.

Corrosion can sometimes be fixed with a simple cleaning, using a wire brush. However, if it's clear that the battery needs replacing, our experts will take care of this right away for you. It's generally recommended that a vehicle battery be changed every four years.

One telltale sign that you may notice when the battery is worn out is difficulty starting your car. This can eventually progress to a complete inability to start your car, which can lead to major inconveniences at the least opportune times.

Nip this problem in the bud when you first notice the signs, so you can avoid the next sign of battery damage-the need for repeated jumpstarts. It's nice that there are helpful folks around who may help you with a jump when you need it. However, this unexpected problem is sure to throw a monkey wrench in your day-to-day plans.

Avoid the hassle of having to repeatedly flag down strangers for help with the battery by coming to us for service the minute you notice that it is sluggish.
