Car Batteries Mansfield
Your car’s battery is one of its most critical components. It’s not fancy, it’s not complicated, but it’s just as – if not more – important than anything else under your bonnet. When you’re looking for car batteries Mansfield then Premier Service Centre is number one choice.
That’s why ensuring your battery is in good health is crucial in keeping your car on the road for as long as possible. It’s good practice to get a battery health check as often as you can. Keeping your battery in good condition is important for a number of reasons; chief among which is to make sure that none of the components that run off electric power are being put under unnecessary strain. This is particularly true of the alternator. A battery that’s low on charge means the alternator has less power to work with. This results in components becoming overworked, resulting in a comparatively high wear rate with that of items running off a healthy battery.

Modern cars are stacked to the brim with electronic items. Everything from inbuilt satellite navigation to central locking is dependent on your battery. A couple of decades ago when a battery failed, you usually realised it when the vehicle didn’t start. You replaced it, reset the clock and radio stations and you were back on the road. Today we see cars with symptoms of stalling, check engine lights, memory loss, and anti-theft no-start problems all have a relationship to a weak car battery.
A leaking battery is also important to check for as battery acid is very corrosive. This can cause some serious structural damage to your car. While car manufacturers design the engine bay to keep the battery away from key components like chassis cross members and important structural items, their safety cannot be guaranteed. A leaking battery needs to be replaced as soon as you notice it.
