How do I know my battery may need replacing?
Like all parts, batteries run their course. Most will last up to five years, depending on conditions and how often you drive. Signs of an aging battery include an audible slow crank when you attempt to start your engine, a lit check engine/battery light or the strange odor of rotten eggs.
If you have any concerns, Hoffman Ford offers a complimentary computerized battery test. Plus, each Motorcraft® battery we install features the latest technologies in design and engineering. They provide dependable power to today's high‐technology vehicles across a wide range of conditions.
Signs You Need a New Car Battery
Most car batteries last for five years, depending on how often you drive and the conditions you drive in. When your battery needs to be replaced, you may notice these signs:
- Misshapen battery case: Extreme heat and cold can warp, swell and crack your battery case, making the battery malfunction.
- A rotten egg odor: A damaged battery or an internal short leaks gas, causing a foul odor under the hood.
- A lit battery or check engine light: This light indicates that your battery or alternator has a problem.
- A slow crank sound when you start your car: Old batteries have worn-out components that take longer to start your vehicle. If it takes a few more seconds than usual for your engine to start, it may be a sign your battery is giving out.
- Corroded connectors: Corroded terminals can create voltage issues and cause your car to fail to start. You can identify corrosion by looking for a white, ashy material on the metal battery parts.
- Electronic problems: Because the battery powers the electronics, electronic issues may indicate a battery problem. Electronics include your lights, radio and dashboard. Your battery also powers your phone charger.
