Symptoms of Car Battery Problems

It is important to recognize symptoms that indicate problems with your battery. If it has been more than 3 years since your last battery replacement, it's time to get the battery checked to make sure it's still running in top condition. Other key symptoms of a battery or starting and charging system issue include:

• Car is slow to start
• Clicking noise when cranking your vehicle
• Battery has heavy corrosion or a build-up of battery acid around the terminals
• Dim headlights
• Electrical issues such as failing power windows or radio

As soon as you notice any of these symptoms, bring your vehicle to our shop here at D. Wells Automotive Service to have it checked out. Even if you are able to jump-start your vehicle, it may not run for long, and you don't want to get stranded on the side of the road.
