  • Why doesn’t my XT battery stay charged? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery might be old. Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the lights on overnight. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care and learn more about your battery's charge.
  • What happens to my old XT battery? We recycle it, taking care of both your car and the Earth.
  • How much will replacing my Subaru XT’s battery cost if I get a DieHard battery? Subaru XT batteries can be affordable, especially when there's an available battery coupon. 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? A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my XT’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your XT, it's likely corrosion. A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can create a white, powdery substance that builds up over time on the terminals. This buildup can interfere with the electrical connection between the battery and your XT’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
  •  How do I clean corrosion off my XT vehicle battery? To help extend the life of your battery, you should routinely inspect and clean the terminals using a baking soda and water mix, wire brush, and rag. Be sure to disconnect the battery cables before cleaning and check your XT owner’s manual for instructions on how to do so.
