Why did my car battery die?

Posted on 4/2/2020


Hi! We want to make sure you know that we are open and ready to take care of you. We are offering touchless service. We will pickup, deliver and sanitize your vehicle for you. We know that in this uncertain time the last thing you want to worry about is your vehicle so we're making that one less thing to worry about. 


If you car battery has died suddenly then it could be from a couple of issues. One it could be your battery is just old and it's time for a replacement. Your battery should last from 4 to 7 years, it just depends on the quality of your battery and the climate that you live in. The other option is that your alternator has stopped functioning and caused your battery to die. The only way to know for sure is to bring your vehicle in and we will do a free electrical test on it for you. We will test your battery, alternator and your starter. 


Give us a call and let us take care of you. (541) 791-2886
