The winter weather conditions that are approaching can do a number on your Hatfield new or used Toyota’s battery. The cold temperatures can result in a dreaded dead battery when 
you really need to be somewhere on time. A dead battery will not get you where you need to go.
Batteries need to work harder in cold temperatures. If your battery is not being taken care of properly, it can leave you stranded. Our Hatfield Toyota service center recommends that all drivers schedule an appointment for a battery check along with other engine tune up services when winter is approaching. Our experienced mechanics will be able to inspect the condition of the battery making sure there are no signs of damage. We have the equipment to test the charge in the battery and the connections to the other electrical to ensure everything is firing properly.
With regular use, batteries can begin to leak which causes corrosion on the connections. If your car won’t start, it may not be due to a dead battery but a bad connection. If the rust and corrosion on the battery connections causes a problem with the charge, your vehicle may start but then leave you stranded later.
Regular engine tune ups should include battery inspections. With the cold temperatures especially at night, it is important to have a strong battery free of leaks and damage. Our Hatfield Toyota mechanics are on hand to provide you with a full engine inspection, tune up and battery check. If you need to replace your battery, our service center will have the battery you need in stock so you won’t be delayed.
Contact our service center today to prepare for the upcoming cold temperatures, snowy conditions, and potential hazards winter conditions bring. We want all of our customers to drive safe winter and driver safety starts with a well-maintained vehicle.
