A sluggish engine start, a blinking battery or check engine light, bloated battery case, corrosion-covered posts, or weak lights can all signal that your battery is waving goodbye.

Commonly Asked Yukon Battery Questions

Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for answers to all your car battery questions. If you have a Yukon-specific battery question, pay us a visit. Our technicians have the answers.

  • Why won’t my Yukon battery hold a charge? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. The battery may be too old. Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
  • What do you do with my old Yukon battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  •  How much do DieHard batteries cost for your GMC Yukon? You can find affordable Yukon 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 Yukon’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 Yukon 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 Yukon car battery? You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your Yukon owner's manual to learn how to disconnect the battery cables. After disconnecting the cables, use a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag to carefully clean the terminals.
