Consulting our magic snow globe, we can confidently make
this seasonal prediction: thousands of drivers will find
themselves stranded in the dead of winter thanks to a dead
battery. Understanding what keeps your battery cranking can
help you avoid being left out in the cold.
As air cools, the oil in your car thickens. Parts move slower
and it requires more energy for the battery to turn over
and start the engine. A battery loses a third of its power in
freezing weather. If the temperature drops to zero or below,
your battery has only half its power.
To keep your battery operating reliably in any season, have
a trained technician clean battery cables and check that the
charging system is charging at the correct rate. The AAA
network of Approved Auto Repair facilities is an additional
source for requesting a diagnosis of your vehicle’s charging
system.
One way to protect your battery from the cold is to use a block
h
s winter wear and
tear on your battery and starter, and also reduces emissions
and inc eases fu l ec nomy.
What do you do if your battery has b en exposed t very
cold weather? A fully charged battery will no freeze unless
the t mpe ature drops very low. If it does freeze, it destroys
the lead coating and the battery ca not charge. If the s d s
of your battery s em to bow out, this is a sign the battery is
frozen. Never try to boost a frozen battery because it may
explode.
Maybe you are a snowbird who winters in the sun and
leaves the car behind. If your battery is allowed to discharge
completely a few times, you will end up replacing your battery
because the lead coating on the battery’s internal plates will
fail – -- and so will the battery. Use a AAA Battery Tender®
charger to keep the battery charged during periods you are
not driving your vehicle.
No matter what precautions you take, your battery will
probably be reliable just 3 to 5 years. An aging battery
increases the odds that you could spend some unscheduled
time in your driv w y or p rking lot. Here’s some g od news
about batteries to make your season a little brighter. If you
do have battery problems, AAA can help. AAA Ba tery Service
offers fr e diagnosti s – an technicians come to you. They
can test your charging system and, at your request, install a
quality AAA battery right on the spot.
Your new AAA battery comes with a member discount and
a 72-month limited warranty and free replacements for 36
months, nationwide.
Every battery we replace is recy led, so if y ur New Y ar’s
resolution includes a little more environmental responsibility,
we’ve got you covered there, too. So far, AAA Battery Service
and our collection program, AAA Great Battery Roundup®,
have kept more than 2
ting
landfills.
