Common Causes of Car Battery Failure
Do you have a dead battery?” is usually one of the first questions someone will ask when they hear that a car won’t start.
A car battery going bad is a common problem that may leave you stuck at work, outside the store, or in the driveway.
Other possible issues include having a bad alternator or a bad starter.
High quality batteries can have a lifespan of 4 to 6 years. However, due to a variety of reasons, they may stop working correctly.
Reasons why a car battery can go bad
Charging system: Charging systems that aren’t working correctly can cause batteries to die. If your vehicle’s tensioners are worn out, or if any belts are loose they can cause the alternator to stop functioning.
Corrosion: Corrosion can build up on the battery terminals when battery acid combines with other substances underneath the hood of your vehicle. You can prevent corrosion by checking a battery’s water levels and cleaning the terminals and cables. You can use anti-corrosion pads underneath the battery terminals.
Leaving your headlights and dome lights on drains the car battery. If you’re going to leave your vehicle unattended for long periods of time, make sure these lights are off.Weak battery: It’s important to take care of your battery. Those that aren’t maintained properly can weaken more quickly.
