The Importance of a Reliable Car Battery

Your car’s battery powers essential systems such as starting the engine, lights, and electronic features like your infotainment system. Over time, batteries lose their efficiency, especially in extreme weather conditions or after extended periods of use. A weak or failing battery can leave you stranded, so regular battery testing and timely replacement are crucial to avoid unexpected breakdowns.

Signs You May Need a New Battery

It’s important to recognise the warning signs of a failing battery. If you notice any of the following, it’s time to visit Braintree Motor Company for a professional inspection:

• Difficulty starting the engine, such as slow cranking
• Dashboard warning lights, such as the battery light or check engine light
• Dim headlights or flickering interior lights
• Electrical features, like power windows or radio, functioning poorly
• A noticeable drop in performance during cold weather
• A battery that is more than 3-5 years old

Don’t wait for your battery to fail completely—get it tested and replaced if necessary.

We recommend annual battery checks, especially before winter, to ensure it’s in good condition.
