Why won’t my Monte Carlo battery hold a charge?

A battery that won't hold a charge is almost as good as dead. It may be getting old. Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the lights on overnight. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.

What do you do with my dead Monte Carlo battery?

We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.

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.

What is the white, crusty stuff around my Monte Carlo’s battery post?

The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Monte Carlo car battery terminals is called corrosion. It is caused by a chemical reaction between the battery acid and the air, which creates a white, powdery substance that can build up on the terminals over time. Corrosion can interfere with the flow of electricity between the battery post and the car's electrical system, sometimes leading to poor electrical performance, difficulty starting, and even premature battery failure.

How do I remove corrosion from my Monte Carlo car battery?

To help extend the life of your battery, you should routinely inspect and clean the terminals using a baking soda and water mix, wire brush, and rag. Be sure to disconnect the battery cables before cleaning and check your Monte Carlo owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
