  • Why won't my Prelude battery stay charged? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. It may be getting old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the cabin light at night. Stop in for a free battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What do you do with my dead Prelude battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  • How much will replacing my Honda Prelude’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Honda Prelude batteries can be affordable, especially when there's an available battery coupon. The best part is every DieHard battery comes with a free replacement warranty and extra coverage with DieHard Assurance.
  •  How long do car batteries last? A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my Prelude’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Prelude car battery terminals is called corrosion. It is caused by a chemical reaction between the battery acid and the air, which creates a white, powdery substance that can build up on the terminals over time. Corrosion can interfere with the flow of electricity between the battery post and the car's electrical system, sometimes leading to poor electrical performance, difficulty starting, and even premature battery failure.
  • How do I remove corrosion from my Prelude car battery? To help extend the life of your battery, you should routinely inspect and clean the terminals using a baking soda and water mix, wire brush, and rag. Be sure to disconnect the battery cables before cleaning and check your Prelude owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
