Three Tips for Prolonging Your Genesis’s Battery Life

Your battery keeps your vehicle running, so when it starts to have issues, so will you. Without a properly functioning car battery, you’ll have issues starting your car and may have to find someone to give your battery a jump in a parking lot or your driveway. The good news is that you can avoid all these issues with DIY battery maintenance and when you prioritize routine battery maintenance at your local Genesis dealer.

Three Tips for Prolonging the Life of Your Genesis Car Battery

1. Maintain Your Battery

You don’t have to be a mechanic to maintain your battery and help prolong its overall life. Wiping down the battery regularly will remove dust, grime, or debris and help keep it clean and fully functional. Additionally, cleaning around the connections and the battery with the right products will prevent corrosion, which can damage the connections and cause the battery to have recurring issues even if it has a lot of life left.

2. Check All Electrical Components Before Exiting Your Vehicle

Accidentally bumping an overhead light or having kids in the car who like to play with switches can all increase the risk of an electrical component being left on without you realizing it. Always check that electrical components like overhead lights and switches are off before exiting your vehicle. Leaving electrical components running for a significant amount of time can drain your battery and cause your vehicle not to start the next time you need to leave.

3. Schedule Service Appointments at Your Local Genesis Dealer

One of the easiest ways to prolong the life of your battery is by scheduling a service appointment at the Genesis service center. The factory-trained technicians know exactly how to care for your model and its battery. They will evaluate your battery, test it to see how much life it has left, service it, and address any issues.
If they test your battery and determine that replacing it is the best option, they can order the right battery for your Genesis and install it for you. That way, you won’t have to worry about your battery dying or having issues since you will have a new one installed by factory-trained technicians you can trust.
