How long do car batteries last? In general, a car battery is good for about three to four years. It can last longer than this, but it’s important to care for it once it reaches its “old age”! We recommend getting your battery checked every three to six months once it’s past its prime. It’s also important to pay attention to warning signs that your battery may be near the end of its life – things like a slow engine crank and the Check Engine light are two of the most obvious symptoms. If you notice these warning signs, bring your vehicle into Tires Plus immediately – you don’t want to be stranded somewhere with a car that won’t start.
