Whether you have a gasoline-powered vehicle or you're driving a hybrid or EV around Warrington, Lansdale, or beyond, you'll want to routinely check and maintain your car's battery. The battery not only provides power to your vehicle, but also helps get things started and keep things running. Over time, the battery will begin to lose its charge, causing you vehicle issues that are both annoying and avoidable.

Red Flags Your Car's Battery Needs Service
Every car, truck, SUV, or van will show signs that the battery needs service or to be replaced. These include:
- Dim Lights - Do the interior cabin lights look dimmer than normal? Have you noticed that the headlights aren't as bright as they're supposed to be? Does it seem like the electronics in your car are on the fritz? If you answered yes to any of these questions, it could be because the battery is beginning to die. You'll want to inspect the battery and check its current charge level.
- Hard Starts - When you go to start your car in the morning, does it take a while to get started up? If so, this could be a sign that the battery is losing its charge. First-time starts require a lot of battery power, and if your battery is giving you a hard time, you'll want to have it checked out.
- No Starts - If you ignore the warning signs above or if you accidentally drain your car's battery, you could be left stranded. When this happens, you'll first want to try and jumpstart your vehicle using jumper cables and another vehicle. If this gets your battery working again, great! You'll want to consider replacing the battery in the near future. If it doesn't, you'll need to replace the battery before you can drive again.
