Stop in for a free battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.

  •  How much do DieHard batteries cost for your Ford Fiesta? You can find affordable Fiesta 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.
  • How often should I replace my car battery? 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 Fiesta’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your Fiesta, 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 Fiesta’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my Fiesta car battery? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag. Disconnect the battery cables before cleaning to help avoid the risk of electrical shock. Always reference and follow the instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual prior to disconnecting the battery cables.
