Battery Service at Gillman Subaru Southwest

 

Your Subaru car's battery is the heart and soul of an automobile's electrical system, powering the lights, infotainment system, engine alternator, and much more. It's important to have your battery regularly tested and inspected, and you can do that right here at Gillman Subaru Southwest. 

Causes of Battery Wear and Care Tips

In ideal conditions, regular battery inspection and never doing anything that can drain a car battery (i.e. leaving the headlights on, leaving a phone charger plugged in), a car battery could last around six years. However, "ideal conditions" constitute unreasonable expectations, especially here in the hot Houston, TX area. Our climate quickens battery expiration by sapping a battery of water at an accelerated rate and also by facilitating sulfation, which is the gradual creation of salt crystals that limit the battery's productivity and contribute to an early-than-ideal demise.

Our Subaru service center serving Cypress, TX is well aware of the role that weather plays in battery condition and we recommend that you visit our local Subaru dealer regularly to have your battery inspected and charged. We'll also clean your battery, especially the nodes, which can get dirty and lessen the battery's ability to deliver a sufficient charge.

Be aware that the kind of Subaru car you drive, how you drive it, and its age are also contributing factors to battery lifespan. Even more reason to visit our Subaru dealership at 10575 W Sam Houston Pkwy S in Houston, TX for regular care!
