  • How often should I replace my 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, flaky stuff around my Prizm’s battery post? The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your Prizm’s battery terminals is known as corrosion.
