  • Why won't my Sportage battery stay charged? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery might be old.

Stop in for a free battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What happens to my old Sportage battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.

The best part is every DieHard battery comes with a free replacement warranty and extra coverage with DieHard Assurance.
  • How long is a car battery good for? 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.
  • Why is there white, crusty buildup on my Sportage’s battery post? The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Sportage 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 clean corrosion off my Sportage vehicle battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your Sportage’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.
