A car battery can die for several reasons. Here are some common causes:
Faulty Alternator: If the alternator isn’t working properly, it won’t recharge the battery as you drive
Old Age: Most car batteries last 3 to 5 years. If yours is older, it might not hold a charge well.
Extreme Temperatures: Both hot and cold weather can affect battery performance. Heat can cause fluid to evaporate, while cold can make it harder for the battery to deliver power.
Frequent Short Trips: Short drives don’t give the alternator enough time to recharge the battery fully.
Parasitic Drain: Leaving lights, the radio, or other electronics on when the engine is off can drain the battery.
Regular oil changes are essential for keeping your car running
If your car won’t start but the radio and lights
It’s typically a good idea to let your engine cool
