A car battery drains for many reasons: leaving lights on, faulty wiring, or even short trips that prevent full charging. Understanding these causes helps keep your battery—and your ride—running smoothly.
Car batteries typically last between 3 to 5 years, depending on climate and driving habits. Regular care can extend their life, but eventually, every battery will need a recharge—or a replacement.
Car battery corrosion often creeps in from acid leaks, moisture, and electrical reactions. This flaky buildup at the terminals can hinder power flow, signaling the need for timely cleaning and maintenance.
