How to Tell If Your Battery Has Gone Bad

A failing battery is relatively easy to spot, and if you think your vehicle is having battery problems, don’t hesitate to get it looked at by an automotive professional. Some signs of a bad battery are:

  • If it takes longer than normal for your engine to start, or an extended amount of time for your engine to heat up
  • If you hear unusual cranking sounds from your car as you drive
  • Your engine flickers before turning it on, it takes a couple of different tries before it starts
  • The lights in the cabin or headlights suddenly go out or gradually flicker.
  • Your vehicle won’t turn on at all while making a ticking sound.

Contact our service department if any of the above occurs with your vehicle, and we will work with you to get your car in for a new battery.

The Importance of Frequently Inspecting Your Battery

Inspecting your battery regularly is important to your vehicle’s health and longevity. Inspecting the battery can help detect damage or cracks before they turn into full battery leaks. Keeping your battery clean as well can help protect the life of the battery. There are two ways to inspect your vehicle’s battery by yourself. They include looking to see if it appears rusty, leaking, or looks crusty. Drive your vehicle and try turning it on and off a couple of times, and if you have trouble starting, then schedule service right away.
