Car Battery Service

A healthy battery is vital for starting an automobile. And not only is it integral to ignition, it's also responsible for powering numerous other important systems. Your car battery requires professional battery service to perform its best, and that's what you'll get at our Harlingen Chevy dealership.

 

Causes of Battery Wear, and Battery Care Tips

A car battery typically lasts several years. However, there are a few factors that could impact its lifespan. For example, geographic location is a big factor. Whereas cars in the northern U.S. tend to have longer-lasting batteries due to the colder climate, cars in warmer areas of the country are more liable to need new batteries sooner.

High heat and generally warmer weather can accelerate water loss, as well as sulfation, which is the number one cause of early battery failure. For customers of our Chevy dealership, this fact makes regular battery care doubly important.

How frequently a car is driven also impacts battery wear. One thing you should avoid is making a bunch of short trips that require the battery to be constantly started and restarted. This will wear out the battery faster than if you were to take one longer trip.

Ultimately though, the best thing you can do to keep the battery in good shape is schedule regular maintenance appointments at Gillman Chevrolet Harlingen.
