As the vehicle ages, battery issues may arise, such as leaks or a complete loss of charge. In such cases, you'll either need to recharge or replace the battery. A cracked case may also occur, necessitating a full replacement. If the battery drains fast, it will require repairs. Ultimately, the battery will become less effective and will need to be replaced every 50,000 to 60,000 miles. Although it may be a financial investment, maintenance is essential for the longevity of your vehicle.
