The Cold or the Heat…Which Causes More Damage to your Car’s Battery?

Many people around the Kansas City area believe if their vehicle’s battery is going to fail, it will likely happen on an extremely cold winter day. Batteries, of course, fail in cold weather, but you might be surprised to learn more car batteries fail in summer than they do in winter. That is why you need a check-up at an auto maintenance professional shop such as Able Auto Service.

It won’t surprise you that most batteries are designed for optimal performance at temperatures ranging between 68 and 86 degrees (just like a good old KC area spring.) Both extreme cold and extreme heat cause problems HOWEVER, heat-related extremes are more serious because they damage the battery!
