How long can I expect my car battery to 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.

Why is there white, flaky stuff around my Routan’s battery post?

The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Routan 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 a corroded Routan battery terminal?

You can help prevent or get rid of corrosion by regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals. Before cleaning your battery, see your Routan owner's manual to learn how to disconnect the battery cables. After disconnecting the cables, use a mixture of water and baking soda, a wire brush, and a rag to carefully clean the terminals.
