Power When You Need It Most

The importance of your battery cannot be emphasized enough. It is what gets your car going each morning by delivering power to your engine, alternator, and other crucial engine parts. Whenever you start your car, power comes from the battery. To keep your car on the road and to keep going to wherever you need to go, you need a healthy battery. Get your battery tested and maintain it, so that you do not get stranded.
The power in your battery is essential to the function of many components in your car, and not just the engine. It powers your headlights, AC, heater, radio, and more accessories that we have come to depend on in our vehicles.

Battery Replacement

Is there a way to tell if you need a new battery? The simple answer is yes, but by far the easiest way to know for sure is by bringing it in to Stanley Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM of Gilmer and having it tested. Your battery should be tested at least once a year to be sure it is still able to do its job. Our team of service technicians will test your battery and advise you if there is a problem and if it needs to be replaced.
You can get a rough idea yourself by looking for signs.

• Is your car getting harder to start?
• Are there any lights, inside or out that dim or flicker when you try to start your vehicle?
• Do you need to get someone to jump start your vehicle, especially if it hasn’t been driven in several days?

These are all questions you can ask yourself that may indicate it may be time to replace your battery.
Many batteries have a 3–5-year warranty, but once that time frame has gone by, your battery may start to lose power. You can distinguish the age of the battery by looking at the top of the battery, where there is a date that tells you when your battery first began its service.

Battery Care

There are times your battery may test out just fine, but if starting your car becomes a persistent problem, there may be other reasons for concern. Our highly trained service technicians at Stanley Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM of Gilmer will test your battery and perform maintenance like cleaning the battery cables and battery posts to find out if there are any problems. If the battery checks out, they can also troubleshoot and diagnose if there are other underlying problems.
