Your car battery powers your lights and accessories and starts your car. A car battery lasts between three and six years before it needs replacing. The following signs from your Nissan dealer will warn you when it's time for a new car battery before it's too late and your Altima, Pathfinder, or Titan gets you stuck next to the road with a dead battery. more 1. Electronic Issues When your battery is weak, one of the first signs is problems with your car's electronics. Your dashboard lights and headlight will dim, the windows and windshield wipers will move slower, and your heated seats and door locks will act up. 2. It's Hard To Start Your Car A battery on its way out will make it hard to start your car, and you might hear that tell-tale clicking sound when you turn the key in the ignition. The moment you have difficulty starting your car, see it as a warning to replace your battery as soon as possible before it fails and doesn't start your car at all. 3. There's Corrosion Around the Terminals That white stuff on top of the battery around the metal connections can cause voltage problems, making it difficult to get your car going. If there's just a little corrosion and it's not too bad, clean it off with a baking soda and water mixture and a brush. If it's eating away at the metal, replace the battery. 4. The Battery Case Is Damaged Exposure to extreme temperatures or too much current inside a battery cell can damage the battery case. Replace the battery if it looks bloated or has cracks in the battery case. 5. You Get a Nasty Whiff of Rotten Eggs A damaged battery case or an overcharged battery could release hydrogen sulfide that smells like rotten eggs. If you smell that awful odor inside the cabin or under the hood, replace the battery immediately. Over time the acidic gas will gnaw away at critical components under the hood. 6. Your Battery Is Old Batteries age and start to deteriorate due to extreme hot and cold temperatures and lack of maintenance. A good-quality battery can last up to six years. When your battery reaches the three-year mark, get it tested to see if you need a new one. 7. You Have To Jump-Start Your Car If you have to get the jumper cables out of the trunk regularly and ask a good samaritan to help you start your car, it's a sign that your battery has reached the end of its life. To avoid struggling with a weak or dead battery, ask your technician to inspect and test it regularly to determine if it still holds a charge. If you're struggling with battery issues, don't wait until you get stranded with a dead battery. Stop at Ed Martin Nissan of Fishers today for a range of top-quality, durable batteries you can rely on to keep your Nissan going.
