A battery that leaves you stranded isn't always the culprit: a faulty alternator, a worn-out starter, or a parasitic draw can produce the same result. Load testing and current leakage tests help us pinpoint the issue.


Slower starts than usual, dimming lights at idle, needing a jump-start after sitting for two days: a battery almost always gives you a warning before it dies.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Not as long as in milder climates: cold reduces available capacity, and summer heat wears down the plates. An annual load test in the fall is more reliable than an estimate based on years.
The alternator might not be charging, a cable or terminal may have a poor connection, the starter could be failing, or a module might be staying active while the engine is off, draining the battery. A test will identify the cause.
If done incorrectly, yes: reversing the polarity or placing the clamps improperly can damage modules. On newer vehicles, there are designated jump-start points away from the battery itself.
For many recent vehicles equipped with energy management systems, yes: without registration, the system continues to charge based on the old battery's profile, which shortens the lifespan of the new one.
The purchase and installation of a battery billed together are not covered by the 3-month or 5,000-kilometer legal repair warranty. The battery manufacturer's warranty applies instead.
