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 stuff around my Canyon’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 Canyon 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.

How do I clean a corroded Canyon battery terminal?

You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your Canyon owner's manual to learn how to disconnect the battery cables.
