Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs my car battery needs changing?
Some telltale signs include slow engine crank, an illuminated battery warning light, swelling or bloating of the battery case
How long does it take for a car battery change?
The good news is that a basic car battery change service is typically a quick process, often taking 15-30 minutes at most. However, it's important to note that this can vary depending on your vehicle's make and model, as well as the specific battery type required. For those living in the Boise area, it's always a good idea to consult with a service technician who can provide a more accurate estimate based on your car's specifications.
Does the brand of car battery matter?
When choosing a replacement battery, the brand can make a difference in terms of quality, longevity, and performance. Opting for a reputable, well-known brand is generally recommended. For Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles, we recommend Mopar brand batteries. This is especially important for those in more remote areas like Hailey, where reliability is paramount.
How long do car batteries last?
On average, a car battery lasts between three to five years, depending on factors such as climate, driving habits, and maintenance. However, if you live in a hot area like Nampa or frequently take short trips that don't allow the battery to fully recharge, your battery may need to be replaced sooner. Regular battery maintenance, such as cleaning corrosion from terminals and ensuring proper installation, can help extend its lifespan.
Why should I get my new car battery at a dealership?
Our technicians have the expertise to recommend the right battery for your specific make and model. Additionally, we use OEM batteries that come with reliable warranties. Plus, with amenities like complimentary shuttles for those coming from as far as Mountain Home, getting your battery serviced at our dealership is a convenient experience.
