Stop by for a free battery test at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.

  • 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.
  • Why is there white, crusty buildup on my CR-V’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 CR-V 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 CR-V car battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your CR-V’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.
