BatteryBatteries are the backbone of the electrical system and work the hardest in cold weather. If you live in an exceptionally cold climate, you may want to consider upgrading to the largest capacity available for your automobile.
Maintenance and automobile:
Make sure the battery is securely mounted because vibrations can have an impact on the battery’s performance and life. The battery and conn ections should be checked by a Jacksonville AAMCO mechanic at every oil change (and are inspected as part of Jacksonville AAMCO’s ProtectCheck). Unlike other components in your automobile or truck, the battery does not give warning signs when it is near failure. However, if it is hard to start, or you experience a delay after turning the key in the ignition, have your battery checked as soon as possible. Please refer to your owner’s manual for factory recommended maintenance intervals for your specific automobile. your local Jacksonville AAMCO auto repair shop can provide you with a comprehensive starting, charging and battery test.
