  • What do you do with my old S10 battery? We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.

  •  How long do car batteries 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 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 clean a corroded S10 battery terminal? 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.
