  • Why won't my Accent battery stay charged? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. It may be getting old. Or, you’ve been leaving the doors slightly open and the cabin light at night. Stop in for a free battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What do you do with my dead Accent battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  • How much will replacing my Hyundai Accent’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? You can find affordable Accent 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.
  • What is the average lifespan of a 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.
  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my Accent’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 Accent 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 remove corrosion from my Accent car battery? Regularly inspect the terminals and clean them with a mixture of baking soda and water, a wire brush, and a rag. Disconnect the battery cables before cleaning to help avoid the risk of electrical shock. Always reference and follow the instructions in your vehicle owner’s manual prior to disconnecting the battery cables.
