Automotive Tips from Car Doc On The Island: Battery Testing
Posted April 28, 2019 8:54 AMThe simple fact is that 70% of car batteries fail within 4 years. They just need to be replaced at Car Doc On The Island when they are no longer able to hold a full charge.
Batteries are a big ticket item for most Venice drivers and it’s tempting to put off buying a new one as long as possible. But a battery that cannot hold a full charge requires the alternator to work extra hard, causing it to wear out prematurely.
Your Car Doc On The Island service advisor can test your battery to see if it should be replaced. Testing is a good idea for FL drivers because a battery might still be good, but become dead because of a bad alternator or even a worn serpentine belt and tensioner.
