It’s inevitable that, no matter how many improvements have been made in car battery technology, your car battery will eventually die. When you know the average vehicle battery life, you can better plan when it’ll be time for a car battery change. Hopefully, this will keep you from getting stranded by a dead battery in a Akron park lot or your Massillon garage. Generally, the average vehicle battery life is around three to four years. Find out how to best keep your car battery up and running for as long as possible with the Toyota of North Canton service department.
We try to be conservative with our estimation of the average vehicle battery life. Some sources say you can expect to need a car battery change after five to six years. That’s why it’s a good idea to have your battery tested as part of your vehicle’s regular maintenance. How many years you get out of your Canton battery depends on the battery, the car itself, the environment, and your driving habits. You can prolong your battery’s life by making sure you turn off all electrical components, like interior and exterior lights when you turn off the ignition. Driving year-round in a hot climate can also decrease your battery’s life span, but the temperate climate in OH shouldn’t cause harm. To be on the safe side, you might want to store your car in a temperature-controlled garage during summer.
Some tell-tale signs can alert you to a potential battery problem. Here are some signs to watch for. If you experience any of these issues, schedule an appointment with our service department for a quick battery charge test. Act quickly, or you could be at risk of getting stranded.
If you start seeing these issues and it’s been three years or more since you last replaced your car battery, it might be time to consider a replacement.
Whether your car battery has failed you or you’re trying to stay ahead of an aging battery, you can save money on a car battery change at Toyota of North Canton. Shop our service specials to find savings on Toyota batteries and installation from our certified technicians.
