Why Battery Health Matters

Car batteries often fail with little warning. Regular checks help detect:

Low charge or failing cells
Corrosion or loose terminals
Faulty alternators or starters
Parasitic drain or cold weather faults

Symptoms of a failing battery include:

Slow engine crank
Dim headlights or dashboard flicker
Electrical malfunctions
Clicking sounds on ignition
Engine warning light

If you’ve experienced any of these, don’t wait until you’re stranded. Book a diagnostic check today.
