Are Extreme Temperatures Affecting My Battery?
Your battery is one of the most important aspects of your vehicle. If it’s not working, you can’t turn your ignition. Extreme temperatures are going to play a role in how long your battery lasts.
If your battery is constantly exposed to cold temperatures, the few things are going to happen. The recharge rate will reduce, the battery capacity will drop, and your battery will be forced to work harder because of thicker engine oil.
When your battery is in the heat, remember it gets even hotter under the hood. The battery fluid is likely to evaporate.
