How long can I expect my car battery to last?

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.

What is the white, crusty substance accumulating on my Express 3500’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 Express 3500 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.

What do I do about corrosion on my Express 3500 car battery?

Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your Express 3500’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables.
