Top EXP Car Battery Questions

  • Why won’t my EXP battery hold a charge? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery might be old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What do you do with my dead EXP battery? We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.
  • How much will replacing my Ford EXP’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? You can find affordable EXP 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? 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 EXP’s battery post? A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your EXP car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.
  • What do I do about corrosion on my EXP car battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your EXP’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.
