Need a New Battery? Call Charlie's Fast Lube Sparta Today
March 10, 2019
Hello Sparta drivers! Need a new battery? There is a good chance that you do – 70% of batteries need to be replaced within four years. As your battery discharges and then recharges as you drive around Sparta, bits of the surface of the battery plates disintegrate. As this process continues over a few years, the alternator has to work harder to supplement the battery charge. Over time, enough of the battery is damaged that it can no longer hold a charge and it needs to be replaced. This also speeds up wear on the alternator.
Your Charlie's Fast Lube Sparta service advisor can help you determine the right vehicle replacement battery for the way you drive around Sparta, as well as the Illinois climate and durability needs.
Contact Charlie's Fast Lube Sparta for information on battery replacement.
Give us a call.
