  • Why doesn’t my Skyhawk battery stay charged? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. It may be getting old.

Stop by for a free battery test at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care to learn more about the state of your battery.

  • How often should I replace my car battery? You can usually get three to five years out of your car battery. However, battery type, how well you maintain your battery, and your driving habits can all affect your battery’s lifespan.
  • Why is there white, crusty buildup on my Skyhawk’s battery post? A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your Skyhawk car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my Skyhawk car battery? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag. Disconnect the battery cables before cleaning to help avoid the risk of electrical shock. Always reference and follow the instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual prior to disconnecting the battery cables.
