Batteries
Your car's battery should be examined and maintained to guarantee the performance of your automobile's electrical system.
Need batteries? We can help today.
Your vehicle's battery is the heart of its electrical system. It provides the power to start your engine and runs all electrical accessories when the engine is off. At AutoZmotive, we test, maintain, and replace car batteries for all makes and models.
Most car batteries last 3 to 5 years, but extreme temperatures, short trips, and parasitic electrical drains can shorten their lifespan. Philadelphia's cold winters are particularly hard on batteries — a battery at 32°F has about 65% of its cranking power compared to 80°F.
Our battery service includes load testing to measure your battery's actual cranking capacity, terminal cleaning to ensure proper electrical connections, and cable inspection. If your battery needs replacement, we'll install a quality replacement that meets or exceeds your vehicle's specifications.
Evan and the team have expertise in diagnosing tricky electrical drain issues. One of our customers had a battery drain issue on their Hyundai that no other shop could solve for years — we found the problem quickly and fixed it right up.
