Commonly Asked Forte Koup Battery Questions

Turn to Firestone Complete Auto Care for answers to all your car battery questions. If you have a Forte Koup-specific battery question, visit your nearest store. Our technicians are happy to help.

  • Why won’t my Forte Koup battery hold a charge? A car battery that needs to be jump-started every time is as good as dead. It may be getting old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the lights on overnight. Stop in for a free 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 Forte Koup battery? We recycle it! Nearly 100% of all lead-acid batteries are recyclable.
  • How much will replacing my Kia Forte Koup’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? You can find affordable Forte Koup 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? 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 Forte Koup’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Forte Koup 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.
  • What do I do about corrosion on my Forte Koup 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 Forte Koup 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.
