Firestone Complete Auto Care has answers to your top car battery questions. If you have a battery question that's unique to your Mazda 6 battery, pay us a visit. Our expert techs have the answers you need.

  • Why won’t my 6 battery hold a charge? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. It may be getting old. Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the dome lights on during the night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.

  • How long is a car battery good for? 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 6’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 6 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 6 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.
