Why Is Having a Healthy Car Battery Important & How Often Should I Change My Honda's Battery?
Old and failing car batteries aren't reliable and are a serious safety hazard. A car battery is your Honda's initial power source. A healthy battery can be counted on to provide the zap of electricity needed to put electrical components to work. Your car battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy before the current delivers a voltage to the starter. It then stabilizes the voltage to keep your Honda's engine running.
It's no secret that hot Chicago summers and harsh Illinois winters can shorten your battery's lifespan. Extreme heat and frigid temperatures make it more difficult to start your Honda. Most Honda car batteries should be replaced every three to four years, on average. Some car batteries are capable of lasting up to six years.
