Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the dome lights on during the night. Stop in for a free battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care to learn more about the state of your battery.
  • What happens to my old S10 battery? We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.
  • How much will replacing my Chevrolet S10’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Chevrolet S10 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.
  • What is the average lifespan of a car battery? A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my S10’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your S10, it's likely corrosion. A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can create a white, powdery substance that builds up over time on the terminals. This buildup can interfere with the electrical connection between the battery and your S10’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my S10 car battery? You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your S10 owner's manual to learn how to disconnect the battery cables. After disconnecting the cables, use a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag to carefully clean the terminals.
