The importance of a car battery cannot be overstated, as the starting component helps power up your Ford vehicle. A surge of electrical energy is sent from the battery to the starter, which is then able to crank the engine and get you moving. A car battery also powers lights and several in-car functions. The best car battery for your Ford is a genuine Motorcraft® battery, which we supply in Baytown.
Are you unable to start your Ford? Are frequent jump-starts needed? The battery is likely dead and in need of a replacement. Remain alert for a slow engine crank or a clicking sound during ignition. Look under the hood to make sure the car battery case is not swollen, cracked, or leaking acid. Dim lights, electrical issues, and a battery symbol illuminated on the dashboard may signal it's time to replace the car battery.
You should plan on replacing the car battery under the hood of your Ford every five years. Your car battery could last longer, but it also could fail before then. Extreme heat that greater Houston endures throughout the summer can shorten the life of a car battery. So can short trips around Baytown and failing to turn off your Ford's lights. A Motorcraft® car battery comes with a 36-month free replacement warranty and should last three to five years.
Eventually, you won't be able to start your Ford vehicle. Not replacing the battery will lead to starting issues and potential disruptions to your daily schedule.

Beyond replacing the car battery, it's important to clean the battery terminals, as too much corrosion decreases a battery's charge and functionality.
