Battery Replacement Interval
Most vehicle batteries tend to last between three and five years, as they spend time baking in the summer heat near Socorro. If you drive an electrified vehicle, like the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid or Jeep Wrangler 4xe, the battery used for the Plug-in Hybrid System has a far longer life expectancy due to the intended application. In addition, some drivers may experience battery troubles due to a failing alternator or parasitic draw, which may require further inspection.
Factors That Shorten Battery Life
Some of the factors that shorten battery life for drivers near Horizon City include extreme temperature, high utilization, and low voltage. When a battery has to be jumpstarted or charged, it can be damaged and hold less of a charge over time, requiring replacement in the future. If you intend to utilize your vehicle off-road or run multiple accessories, like light bars and overlanding equipment for adventures near Horizon City, our team of Mopar® Parts Center experts can help you find deep-cycle batteries that meet your needs.
