  • Why won’t my DeVille battery hold a charge? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. The battery may be too old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the lights on overnight. Stop by for a free battery test at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
  • What happens to my old DeVille battery? We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.
  • How much will replacing my Cadillac DeVille’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Cadillac DeVille batteries can be affordable, especially when there's an available battery coupon. The best part is every DieHard battery comes with a free replacement warranty and extra coverage with DieHard Assurance.
  • How often should I replace my car battery? Car battery lifespan varies depending on a few factors, including driving conditions, accessories,  how well it’s maintained, and the type of battery. On average, a car battery lasts about three to five years.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my DeVille’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 DeVille 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 clean a corroded DeVille battery terminal? 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.
