Get Back On The Road Quickly With ACA
There is never a good time to have a dead battery. The trouble is that in most cases, you never get any really good warning signs before your battery decides to call it a day.
There are a number of reasons why batteries die:
- Leaving on interior lights, headlights or running the radio when the car isn’t running.
- Exposure to extreme high or temperatures can also drain a battery because of the extreme conditions. This is not a frequent occurrence in SoCal.
- If your vehicle is in storage and hasn’t been started in a long time, chances are the battery will be dead.
- Problems with your alternator can drain the battery because the purpose of the alternator is to charge the battery when it is running.
- Not properly maintaining the battery can also lead to problems. Bad cables or corroded terminals can cause the battery to not properly perform.
