How Often Should You Have the Car Battery Replaced?

Generally, a car's battery should be replaced every three to five years. The lifespan of a car's battery does depend on several factors, including climate and vehicle usage. If your car tends to drive in extreme temperatures, either heat or below freezing temperatures, you'll want to check the charge more often.

What Are Some Signs That Your Car Battery Needs Replacement?

Your car's battery will give several warning signs to show that it needs to be replaced. Some of these include:

  • Slow Cranking - Does it take a while for your vehicle to start?
  • Dim Lights - Are your car's headlights or interior lights dimmer than usual?
  • Smell - Is there a pungent, rotten egg smell coming from the battery?
  • Corrosion - Do you see a white, powdery buildup on the battery terminals?
  • Jump Starts - Have you had to jump start your vehicle?

If you've noticed any of these signs, you'll want to schedule a battery test at our Fred Beans Ford of Mechanicsburg dealership. Our team can test the battery and inspect it, replacing the entire battery if needed.
