How long can I expect my car battery to last?

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, flaky stuff around my Pickup’s battery post?

The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your Pickup’s battery terminals is known as corrosion. Acid leaking from your vehicle’s battery post can have a chemical reaction with the air, leading to an accumulation of the white, powdery substance over time. Corrosion can affect the flow of electricity between your battery and the electrical system in your Pickup, possibly causing issues with electrical performance and starting. If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.

How do I remove corrosion from my Pickup 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.

Shopping for Toyota Pickup Car Batteries

Sadly, your Toyota Pickup won't last forever. Neither will its battery. Generally, car batteries last from three to five years. Check your battery regularly and replace it as needed so it doesn’t leave you and your Toyota Pickup stranded. Watch for signs that your current battery is getting too old or too weak. A lagging starter, an illuminated battery or check engine light, bloated battery case, corrosion-covered posts, or dim headlights can all be signs that your battery is on its last leg.
