Need a New Battery? Call Charlie's Fast Lube Sikeston Today
August 18, 2019
Hello Sikeston drivers! Need a new battery? There is a good chance that you do – 70% of batteries need to be replaced within four years. As your battery discharges and then recharges as you drive around Sikeston, bits of the surface of the battery plates disintegrate. As this process continues over a few years, the alternator has to work harder to supplement the battery charge. Over time, enough of the battery is damaged that it can no longer hold a charge and it needs to be replaced. This also speeds up wear on the alternator.
Your Charlie's Fast Lube Sikeston service advisor can help you determine the right vehicle replacement battery for the way you drive around Sikeston, as well as the Missouri climate and durability needs.
Contact Charlie's Fast Lube Sikeston for information on battery replacement.
Give us a call.
