Get Charged with Lithia Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram of Wasilla and a New Car Battery
A car battery is like the heart of an engine--without such your car wouldn't have the ability to do anything. This includes starting up your car in the first place as well as powering many of the comfort and convenience features that make modern driving such a pleasure. It's imperative then that you understand car battery basics to ensure your car a happy and healthy lifetime. Minimize stress, never worry about breakdowns and get the most out of your Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, or Ram by taking these following items into consideration:
- Your battery is dependent on your alternator, starter and battery terminal. Make sure that these three components are also running smoothly.
- Batteries don't do well in extremely cold weather. Always give your vehicle a chance to run before cranking your engine and revving out of your driveway.

Frequently Asked Questions About Vehicle Batteries
At Lithia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Wasilla, we often receive questions about the care and service of automotive batteries in cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs. If you don't see an answer to your question below, don't hesitate to contact a member of our team or visit our dealership in Wasilla, Alaska!
When do I need to replace my car's battery?
While car batteries don't have a specific replacement interval, frequent inspections and load tests can help you determine when your battery needs to be replaced. Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and operating conditions can affect the lifespan of batteries.
How often do I need to have my hybrid or electric vehicle's battery charged?
The frequency of charging a hybrid or Electric Vehicle (EV) battery depends on several factors, including the capacity, vehicle range, and driving habits. Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) models tend to control battery charge automatically by using regenerative braking or a gasoline engine as a generator. In contrast, EV models require a charger to provide an optimal range for longer trips.
How long can a car sit before the battery dies?
Various factors, including the age of the battery, environmental conditions, and electrical draw, can affect the length of time your vehicle can sit before the battery dies. Drivers who plan to keep their vehicle parked for extended periods can utilize trickle chargers to keep a battery charged without overloading it.
Can a car battery be recharged?
Many car batteries can be recharged, though we encourage contacting a certified technician to determine if your battery needs to be replaced if you've needed multiple jumpstarts or charge cycles. Many batteries can develop leaks over time, leading to an inability to hold a charge or provide the cranking amps needed to start the engine.
What's the best way to prepare for service appointments?
When preparing for battery service, we encourage writing notes about any areas of concern and making an appointment online or over the phone with one of our advisors. When your appointment rolls around, our technicians will take the time to diagnose potential issues and provide solutions that help your vehicle operate smoothly.
