  •  How much do DieHard batteries cost for your Dodge Raider? Dodge Raider 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.
  • How long can I expect my car battery to last? A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • What is the white, crusty substance accumulating on my Raider’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your Raider, 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 Raider’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  • How do I clean a corroded Raider battery terminal? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your Raider’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables. Once the cables have been disconnected, gently clean the terminals with a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag.
