How long will my battery last?2024-03-19T00:45:33+00:00

Batteries are typically engineered to endure for three to five years, but cold weather conditions can notably diminish their lifespan. There are several indicators to keep an eye out for:

Difficulty starting the car or the engine cranking more frequently than usual.
Diminished power for both internal and external vehicle electronics.
Illumination of dashboard warning symbols.
If you suspect any issues, it’s advisable to visit your nearby Autocentre for a Battery Check.

How we do it2024-03-19T00:45:43+00:00

Our mobile technician begins by meticulously loading the required equipment into their pristine van. They will then give you a courtesy call 15 minutes prior to your appointment, informing you of their imminent arrival and agreeing on a secure spot for you to leave your car keys.

Before the technician arrives, ensure your car is parked in a safe and accessible location, and place your keys as per the agreed arrangement.

Upon arrival, the technician will don a fresh pair of disposable gloves and retrieve your keys from the designated spot. They will then thoroughly ventilate your vehicle and enhance protection by installing disposable seat covers and steering wheel wraps. Subsequently, they will proceed with the battery replacement task.

Once the job is done, the technician will responsibly dispose of your old battery for recycling and remove all disposable protective materials from your car. They will also update the job status using our online app, eliminating the need for any paper documentation exchange.

Following this, the technician will return your keys to the agreed-upon location for your retrieval. They will either knock on your door, call, or text you to notify you of the completion of the work. If you wish to inspect the work done, they will patiently wait in their van at a safe distance until you are satisfied.

Finally, after ensuring your car is fixed and you are content, the technician will proceed to assist another customer. At the end of their shift, they will meticulously clean their van and dispose of any waste in a safe, legal, and environmentally-friendly manner, prioritizing the safety of both customers and colleagues.

What is a Battery Replacement Service?2024-03-19T00:46:00+00:00

Our mobile battery replacement service can allow you to have your vehicle back up and running with minimal downtime. When you call for service a professional mechanic will come to your location to swap the dead battery for a new one. It’s like taking your vehicle to the shop without going to the shop.

How is a Battery Replacement Done?2024-03-19T00:46:13+00:00

A mechanic will test the viability of your current battery. There’s a possibility your lack of power has nothing to do with a dead battery. Other malfunctions can cause the same problems. The mechanic will run a diagnostic to figure out the root cause. If a replacement battery is necessary, the mechanic will replace it with a new, warrantied battery.

Symptoms that indicate you need a Battery Replacement2024-03-19T00:46:19+00:00

It’s better to replace the battery before it dies, rather than waiting until your car is disabled. Signs your battery is failing can include any or all the following:

Battery/alternator warning light is on or blinking
Engine cranks very slowly, or won’t crank (turn over) at all
Electrical issues, such as the interior lights or radio malfunctioning or working only sporadically
You need a jump more often than not
Lights won’t turn on
Battery case looks swollen
Even without any signs, it’s still possible to drain a battery overnight by leaving your lights on or leaving something plugged into the power outlet.

Can I do it myself?2024-03-19T00:46:25+00:00

You can cut some of the cost by shopping around for a battery and swapping it out yourself. But if you’re busy, or you need the battery replaced immediately, it can make more sense to utilize a mobile battery replacement service.

Keep in mind, though, a dead battery may only be part of a bigger issue. The appropriate tests should be run to make sure there aren’t any other, less obvious complications. This will save you the hassle of replacing the battery only to find out later that it wasn’t the real cause of the problem.

Can I drive without doing a battery replacement?2024-03-19T00:46:34+00:00

You can keep driving with a dying battery, but you shouldn’t. With cars relying more than ever on electrical components, it’s important to have a fully viable battery at all times. If an important electrical component fails while you’re driving, it greatly increases the likelihood of an accident.

If you absolutely must drive, then do so during daylight hours, on low-traffic roads, and only if you’re heading to an auto repair shop. Otherwise, contact us and we will bring the battery straight to your location.
