The Car Care Council has warned us over and over…summer heat
can cause major car battery problems.
Excessive heat combined with overcharging may be a death knell for the
equipment that keeps your car running.
What happens internally is that as the heat is turned up, the battery
fluid begins to evaporate. This damages
the internal structure.
And usually, as the sun beats down on your vehicle, the
voltage regulator creates a higher charging rate. This causes a battery to slowly die. Are you aware that on average one out of
every four vehicles on the road will need a new battery? So do the math, if you have been running on
that same battery for more than a couple of years the odds have caught up to
you.
No one wants to be stranded in the middle of nowhere with a
dead battery. If you are motoring around
the Kansas City area take a few valuable minutes and stop by Able Auto Service
at 837 Osage Ave. in KC. Rob and his
crew, “The A-Team”, will shoot you straight and let you know if the battery
needs to be replaced. You may also call
them for an appointment at (913) 321-1030.
