Battery Warning Signs

Identifying the warning signs and getting your battery checked could save you from a more costly repair down the road. The service experts at your dealership test your battery’s health with leading-edge diagnostic equipment.
If your battery is more than 5 years old, or if you’re experiencing one of the warning signs listed below, bring your vehicle in for service...
  • You hear clicking or buzzing when you turn the ignition
  • Your vehicle has trouble or is slow starting
  • The eye (if equipped) on your battery is dark or clear
 
Common causes for battery failure include:
  • Loss of electrolyte due to age, under hood heat or overcharging
  • Leaving your lights on
  • Undercharging or loose alternator belt
  • Excessive vibration (loose hold-down or mounting)
  • Using tap water for electrolyte
  • Corrosion
  • Freezing

Battery Dos

  • Keep your battery and case clean. Dirt and other deposits can prematurely corrode battery terminals.
    Check the cables to make sure they are firmly attached to the auto battery terminal.
  • Always disconnect your battery’s negative cable first and reattach it last.
  • Charge in a well-ventilated area. The process of charging a battery releases highly flammable hydrogen.
  • Handle batteries carefully. A cracked case could spill harmful chemicals and cause severe burns and/or blindness.
  • Dispose of a battery in accordance with provincial, territorial, and/or local regulations.

Battery Don’ts

  • Wear jewelry when working with a battery.
  • Lean over a battery.
  • Guess as to what type/size of battery your vehicle needs.
  • Attempt to charge a frozen battery; doing so may cause the battery to explode.
  • Disconnect a battery’s cables while your vehicle is running.
