TIPS FOR WINTER BATTERY MAINTENANCE IN SEAFORTH, ONTARIO

Your new car from Robinson Chevrolet Seaforth will get you where you need to go this winter. Of course, winter takes a toll on a car's battery. Batteries diminish more quickly in cold weather. So, what should you do to maintain your new car's battery? Here are some tips to get the most out of your battery this winter with minimal last-minute issues.

1. DRIVE LONGER DISTANCES

Constant short rides can put unnecessary stress on your car battery. Unless necessary, only take the car out when you plan to drive for at least ten minutes (the longer, the better).

2. STORE YOUR VEHICLE INSIDE

You need to protect your car from the elements when not in use. Ideally, you should store your car in a temperature-controlled garage or underground parking. For households without a garage, consider installing temporary protection - at least on top. If you must park on the street, it can help to remove the car battery and charge it inside at night on especially cold days.

3. INSPECT THE BATTERY IN THE FALL

All cars require maintenance. Most car owners may forget to maintain the battery, too. Check the battery for corrosion or frayed connections before the temperatures drop. If there are any issues, you should plan your Service Centre visit to replace or repair your battery before the cold weather hits to ensure optimal battery performance.

4. BUY THE RIGHT CAR BATTERY

You have options when selecting a car battery. Learn what car battery is best for your car and purchase one optimal for freezing temperatures. Cheaper batteries may deteriorate more quickly than they're worth, losing you money in the long run.
