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 Eclipse’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 Eclipse 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 clean corrosion off my Eclipse vehicle battery?

Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your Eclipse’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.
