Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2006 Chevrolet SSR?

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your SSR stranded. Your Chevrolet SSR could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

An illuminated dashboard light means something in your vehicle isn't functioning like it should.
