Why doesn’t my Caravan battery stay charged?

A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery might be old. Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the dome lights on during the night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.

What happens to my old Caravan battery?

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

How much do DieHard batteries cost for your Dodge Caravan?

You can find affordable Caravan batteries by using one of our car battery coupons, when available. Plus, every DieHard battery comes with extra coverage thanks to DieHard Assurance and a free replacement warranty.

What is the average lifespan of a car battery?

Car battery lifespan varies depending on a few factors, including driving conditions, accessories, how well it’s maintained, and the type of battery. On average, a car battery lasts about three to five years.

Why is there white, crusty buildup on my Caravan’s battery post?

The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your Caravan’s battery terminals is known as corrosion. Acid leaking from your vehicle’s battery post can have a chemical reaction with the air, leading to an accumulation of the white, powdery substance over time. Corrosion can affect the flow of electricity between your battery and the electrical system in your Caravan, possibly causing issues with electrical performance and starting. If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.

How do I remove corrosion from my Caravan 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 Caravan owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
