Battery Check

The Importance of Battery Inspections

Battery inspections are important because they can keep your vehicle from breaking down and leaving you stranded. An inspection can reveal when your vehicle's battery is about to give out in the near future. Our technicians will replace the battery to ensure that you don't end up stranded somewhere when your vehicle's battery dies, and the engine refuses to start. Also, battery inspections can reveal loose wires or leaking acid. Loose wires can come off the terminals and cut out your vehicle's engine. Leaking battery acid can damage your vehicle and may even be dangerous.

When You Should Get Your Battery Checked

It can be difficult to know exactly when you should get your battery checked. Thankfully, you don't really need to worry about this. All you have to do is follow your Volkswagen's recommended maintenance schedule. Our technicians know which services are part of which scheduled services. They will perform a battery inspection when it is part of the service visit. Of course, there are other circumstances in which you should get your vehicle's battery checked. If your car is having trouble starting, for example, our technicians will run a test and see what the problem might be. It is also a good idea to get a battery check if your Volkswagen has been sitting for a long time.
