Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2008 Chevrolet Express 1500? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Express 1500 stranded. Your Chevrolet Express 1500 won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
